  • Long feeder runs. Trenched feeders sized for the distance, and for the load you’ll add later.

  • Arena, barn & yard lighting. Light the work, the walkways, and the gate.
  • Winter work. Our customers have called out jobs done in hard Colorado winter weather.

03 Generators & Backup Power

When the grid goes quiet, keep the lights on.

A generator is only as good as the way it connects to your house. We install the hardware that makes backup power safe and simple, and we size it around what you actually need to keep running.

A

Transfer switches

Clean, code-compliant transfer switch installs for portable generators.

B

Standby hookups

Standby generator connections wired to your panel and your priorities.

C

Interlocks & inlets

Interlock kits and generator inlets, so you plug in outside, not through a window.

D

Surge protection

Protect the electronics and appliances you’re keeping powered.
