Terms of Service

Safety first — read this

The information on Standby Generator Guide is for educational purposes. Always hire a licensed electrician for generator installation. Never install a transfer switch yourself. Generator installation requires permits in most US jurisdictions. Information on this site does not constitute professional electrical advice.

Educational use

All content is general information for US homeowners. It is not professional electrical, gas, engineering, or legal advice. Your home, equipment, and local codes are unique — confirm everything with qualified licensed professionals and your authority having jurisdiction.

Estimates, not offers

Prices, costs, and ranges are planning estimates based on market information available at publication. They are not quotes, bids, or guarantees. Actual costs vary by location, labor, equipment, permits, and site conditions.

Site text, diagrams, and images are owned by Standby Generator Guide unless attributed otherwise. You may quote brief excerpts with credit and a link. Do not republish full articles, scrape the site, or present our content as your own.

External links

Links to manufacturer, government, and retailer pages are provided for verification. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability.

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Standby Generator Guide is not liable for decisions made using this content, including equipment purchases, installation outcomes, or outage losses. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain liability limits; where they do not apply, liability is limited to the minimum permitted.
