Common questions for Generator Interlock Switch Installation in Floresville
How is an interlock different from a transfer switch?
A transfer switch is automatic or manual, switches between utility and generator, and is a separate piece of equipment. An interlock kit is a manual mechanical device installed at the panel that physically prevents both sources from being on at once. Interlocks are cheaper but require manual operation.
Will an interlock work with my panel?
Most modern panels (Square D QO, Eaton CH, GE THQL, Siemens) have listed interlock kits available. Older panels or unusual brands sometimes do not. We confirm compatibility before quoting.
How big a portable generator do I need?
Depends on what you want to power. A 3,600W generator runs essential refrigeration, lighting, and small loads. A 7,200W generator runs more, including a window AC or microwave. Sizing depends on what you actually need during an outage.
Is backfeeding without an interlock illegal?
Yes. Backfeeding through a "suicide cord" or any setup that does not include a listed interlock or transfer switch is a code violation and a serious safety risk to utility lineworkers. We will not do those installs.
How much does an interlock install cost?
Total cost includes the interlock kit, the backfeed breaker, the inlet receptacle, cable, and labor. We quote in writing after the panel check.
