Before Installation:
- Follow all manufacturer instructions and local building codes
Pay attention to placement and electrical connections
Never connect a generator to your home’s electrical system without a proper isolation device. Improper installation can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, electrocution, or fire.
This applies to:
- Portable generators
- Stationary units
Contact a qualified electrician to install an isolation device. Without one, your generator could harm utility workers or damage your property.
