Portable Backup Generator Contractor in South Jersey

Ronaldson Electrical Construction is a South Jersey portable (backup) generator provider and Generac Authorized Generator Dealer.

A portable backup generator provides temporary power for parts of your South Jersey home or business, or even electrical devices when you're outside the home, such as while camping. A portable generator alone (without a mechanical interlock device) cannot power an entire home, and unlike a residential or commercial standby generator, a portable generator does not turn on automatically during a power outage, and must be operated manually. But depending on the size of the portable generator, you can use it to keep just a few electrical items running temporarily during a power outage, such as the refrigerator and lights.

Mechanical Interlock for Portable Generator Hook Ups

Don't want to spend the money on a standby generator? We have a solution! Did you know there is a way for your portable generator to power a large portion of your South Jersey home? We can install a mechanical interlock device on your main electrical panel, which interlocks the main breaker from the generator breaker, allowing you to safely power a large portion of your home with a portable generator. No more running multiple extension cords throughout your house! We can set up a single power cord installation that simplifies the setup and allows you to choose what circuits you want to power, including well pump, sump pumps, refrigerator, outlets, lighting, and more.

Benefits of a Portable Generator for your South Jersey Home or Business

Portable backup generators are "portable" and don't take up permanent space in your yard, so you can take them with you when you're traveling, or when you need power to run high power tools or devices that an older or inadequate electrical system may not be able to handle. Plus they require little to no maintenance. But the biggest driving factor for buying a portable backup generator for your South Jersey home or business is that they are more affordable than a standby generator.

Gas or Propane for Your Portable Backup Generator

Generators run on propane, gasoline, or natural gas. Propane generators are less efficient than gas generators, but propane is a cleaner-burning fuel than gasoline, so it's better for both your generator and the environment. Gasoline generators are more efficient than propane and natural gas generators, but gasoline does not burn cleanly, so it will leave more carbon deposits in your generator's engine and release more toxins into the air. Natural gas burns more cleanly than gasoline, and is more emission compliant, but has a lower power output.

The fuel you choose for your South Jersey portable backup generator is just one deciding factor for the model you decide to get. We can offer you tips and suggestions, and answer any questions you may have.
