Critical Uses for Emergency Generators

As we become increasingly dependent on our electrical devices and appliances, standby generators are becoming less of a convenience and more of a necessity. You can count on Martella Electric Company for expert advice on how to keep your electricity running in the event of a power outage.

Important Appliances That Need Power:

  • Medical equipment and stair-lifts
  • Water wells and pumps
  • Heating and cooling systems
  • Sump pumps
  • Lighting systems
  • Sewage ejectors 

Types of Generators for Home Use

Home power generators can be broken down into two basic types, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. The primary differences center on portability, fuel type, and capacity.

Portable Generators

As the name implies, portable generators can be moved between locations. These are normally less expensive than stationary alternatives and have a wide range of capacities that can power as few or as many devices as needed. Portable generators are ideal for temporary use or emergency situations that require immediate power. They are an excellent choice for recreational activities such as camping or powering tools at a remote worksite. 

Some of the unique characteristics of portable generators:

  • They are less expensive
  • They can be moved
  • They require a manual start
  • They have a limited run time

Factors To Consider When Choosing a Generator:

  • Use: Power generators come in many shapes and sizes. If you anticipate using a backup generator for tasks like camping alongside an emergency power supply, consider a portable unit. Alternatively, if you want dedicated power that you can depend on, stationary residential generators are probably the best option.
  • Automation: Typically power outages occur during severe weather, so automatic operation is a big consideration. Portable generators require manual setup and operation, while stationary units essentially work on their own.
  • Power Demands: It is important to consider your power demands. Will you simply want to power the basics like a refrigerator and lights, or are there critical systems like sump pumps, HVAC units, or medical equipment that are important to keep running as well?
  • Connection: It is important to think about how the electricity will be delivered to your home. Smaller portable generators will simply use extension cords. Larger portable units and stationary power generators should be integrated into your home’s power system with a professionally installed transfer switch. This will protect your generator and the electrical equipment within your home.

    "I am 200% sold on the integrity, knowledge, and professionalism of Martella Electric!"
    Martella’s response to an emergency was awesome and expedient! That in and of itself was above and beyond to me. Mark came out on time, explained the issues my HVAC company was incapable of explaining, and gave me 2 estimates so I could make an intelligent choice. I made a decision on the spot! A majority of the work was completed in just one day. I am 200% sold on the integrity, knowledge, and professionalism of Martella Electric and especially their highly-skilled, extremely personable electrician Mark!
