Portable Generator Interlock Kit Installation in Mount Olive, AL

A homeowner in Mount Olive, Alabama wanted a safe, reliable way to power essential circuits during outages without running extension cords through the house. Superior Service Electric installed a generator interlock kit on the main electrical panel so the home can be powered directly from a portable generator in a clean, code compliant way.

Our team sized and installed an approved interlock kit that fits the existing panel, and we verified breaker sizing and compatibility before we began. The interlock was installed so it mechanically prevents the main breaker and the generator breaker from being on at the same time, eliminating the risk of backfeeding into utility lines.

We labeled the circuits clearly so the homeowner knows which circuits can be powered during an outage, for example refrigeration, lighting, and other essentials. After installation we tested the operation to confirm the interlock and breakers functioned safely and correctly when switching from utility power to generator power and back again.

This generator interlock installation gives the homeowner a simple way to power multiple circuits through the panel while keeping the setup neat and code compliant. It removes the need for extension cords, and it prevents dangerous backfeeding that could harm utility workers. For homeowners who do not need a full standby generator, an interlock kit with a portable generator is a cost effective option.

Superior Service Electric electricians completed the work wearing uniforms, and each team member is background checked and professionally trained. We used proven installation methods and quality components, and we took the time to explain how the system works so the homeowner feels confident operating it when the power goes out.
