Why Code Compliance Matters for Generators
Generators must be installed with the correct wiring, grounding, and transfer systems to function safely. Failing to follow local and national codes can result in backfeeding, overloads, or fire hazards. Professional installation keeps your generator efficient and compliant with Washington State and National Electrical Code (NEC) standards.
Key areas of compliance include the following:
- Proper sizing of transfer switches and breakers
- Grounding and bonding in accordance with NEC 250 requirements
- Correct fuel line routing and clearance for gas-powered systems
- Secure connections between generators and service panels
- Proper labeling and documentation for inspection approval
Each installation and repair is completed using approved materials and verified for safe integration with your home’s electrical system.
