How It Works

From Assessment to First Startup

Generator installation involves more than dropping a unit in the yard. Here is what the process looks like when you work with Miles Electric.

01Step 1

Site and Load Assessment

We visit your property to evaluate your electrical panel, calculate your power needs, and determine the right generator size for your home or business.

02Step 2

Transfer Switch and Panel Prep

A properly wired transfer switch is essential for safe generator use. We install and connect it to your panel so utility and generator power never mix.

03Step 3

Generator Installation and Wiring

Our electricians mount the unit, run the necessary wiring, and connect everything according to code. We keep the work clean and the setup organized.

04Step 4

Test Run and Walkthrough

Before we leave, we test the full system and walk you through how it operates, including what to expect during an automatic switchover.

Frequently asked

Generator Questions We Hear Often

Find clear answers about service options, scheduling, preparation, and what to expect before you request an estimate.

Q1

Do I need a permit for generator installation in Beaumont?

Most standby generator installations in Beaumont require a permit. Miles Electric handles the permit process and ensures the work meets local code requirements so you don't have to manage that on your own.

Q2

What size generator does my home need?

It depends on which circuits and appliances you want to power. We assess your panel and calculate your load before recommending a generator size, so you don't end up with a unit that's too small or more than you need.

Q3

What is an automatic transfer switch and why does it matter?

A transfer switch disconnects your home from the utility grid before the generator kicks in. This protects utility workers and your equipment. It's a required part of any safe standby generator installation.

Q4

Can Miles Electric connect a generator to an older electrical panel?

Sometimes, yes. If your panel is outdated or lacks capacity, we may recommend a panel upgrade alongside the generator installation. We'll let you know what's needed after the assessment.

Q5

How long does a generator installation typically take?

Most residential installations are completed in one day. Larger commercial projects or jobs that include a panel upgrade may take longer. We give you a realistic timeline before work begins.

Q6

Will a standby generator start automatically during an outage?

Yes. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch detects the outage and starts on its own within seconds. You don't have to be home or flip any switches for it to work.

Q7

Do you install portable generators or only standby units?

We focus on permanent standby generator installations with proper transfer switches. Portable generator hookups without a transfer switch create serious safety hazards and are not something we set up.

Q8
