Frequently asked

Generator Installation — Common Questions

Common questions get answered quickly so the page feels more trustworthy before someone reaches out.

Q1

Do I need a permit for generator installation in PA?

Yes, most generator installations in Pennsylvania require an electrical permit. Edinson Electrical handles the process in compliance with local codes, so your installation meets all required standards in Whitehall and surrounding areas.

Q2

What size generator does my home need?

Generator sizing depends on your home's square footage, appliances, and essential circuits. During our assessment, we evaluate your electrical load to recommend the right generator capacity for your specific needs.

Q3

What is a transfer switch and why is it required?

A transfer switch safely disconnects your home from the utility grid when the generator runs, preventing dangerous back-feed to power lines. It is a code requirement and a critical safety component for any home generator installation.

Q4

Can you install a generator on an existing electrical panel?

In most cases, yes. We assess your current panel capacity during the site visit. If an upgrade is needed, we can discuss panel upgrade options as part of the overall generator installation project.

Q5

Do you install both standby and portable generators?

We specialize in standby generator installations that connect directly to your home's electrical system. Contact us to discuss your specific generator type and we will confirm the scope of work needed.

Q6

Which areas do you serve for generator installation?

Edinson Electrical serves Whitehall, Allentown, Bethlehem, Macungie, Easton, Northampton, and the greater Lehigh Valley area in Pennsylvania.

Q7

How long does a generator installation typically take?

Most residential generator installations are completed in one day, depending on the complexity of the system, panel configuration, and site conditions. We will give you a more specific timeframe after the initial assessment.

Q8

Is Edinson Electrical licensed and insured for generator work?

Yes. Edinson Electrical is licensed and insured, and our electricians follow a safety-first approach on every generator installation project throughout the Lehigh Valley.
