Backup Power · Generator Inlet

Plug in a portable generator — safely.

A generator inlet box gives your portable generator a permanent, code-compliant connection to your home, so a single cord powers what matters during an outage.

How It Works

One cord. Real circuits. No extension-cord chaos.

We mount a weather-rated inlet box on the exterior of your home and tie it back to your service panel through an interlock or a dedicated generator subpanel. When the power's out, you roll out the generator, plug in once, and energize the circuits you actually need.

Single-cord hookup

One heavy-gauge generator cord replaces a tangle of extension cords running through windows.

Code-compliant interlock

A mechanical interlock kit prevents back-feeding the grid — protecting linemen and your generator.

Whichever circuits you choose

Run furnace, fridge, well pump, internet, lights — the breakers you flip are the loads you cover.

Permit + inspection

We pull permits and coordinate inspections so the install is documented and insured.

What's included

We size the inlet, breaker, and wiring to your generator and the loads you want to back up — and leave you with a clean, labeled, ready-to-go setup.
