"I had a new generator installed previously. However after installing it they found my 13 K generator which was in a box marked so, was actually a 17K. Al and Evan came back with the right Generator, and made the switch in about 1 1/2 hours. This included setting it up to run every so often, and installing it on my Android phone, so i could control, and check its function from same. Again they did excellent neat work. I will hire them again if i need them and recommend them."

"We can't recommend the two electricians Generation 3 sent to our home - Tyler Comiskey and Dan Giuliani - enough. They were courteous, professional, timely, knowledgable. In short, everything you hope for when you make a call like this, but can't know for sure is going to happen! They treated the home with respect - they worked quietly and efficiently and with great attention to detail. Very pleased and would highly recommend."

"It was a pleasure doing business with Ray and we would definitely contact him for future work. We bought a generator, so we needed to have it connected to our panel. Ray took the time to explain how to correctly use the generator, helped us order the correct cable, his crew modified our panel, and then showed us how to use the generator with the panel. Thank you!"

"This was our second time having Glenn out to perform work. We had another contractor doing flooring installation and Glenn was going to have to turn the power off a couple times which would not have been convenient for the flooring people. We really appreciated Glenn being flexible and him willing to reschedule to the next day. Again, he was prompt and had all the materials needed to do the work. He was conscientious about code and load amounts when installing the emergency panel for our portable generator. He was very clean and neat with any mess he made while installing the outlets and ceiling fan. The fan was in our master bedroom and he laid a clean tarp over the bed and carpet before he started. The small holes he made to install the ceiling fan were patched with spackle and are not even noticeable. He even reviewed with us how to operate the fan/light and change the bulbs. Glenn is very personable and profession and very considerate of our home and property. We are very happy to recommend him to our neighbors and friends."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Gwynedd Valley, PA

There is often some confusion about the type of work these professionals do. They only work on electrical systems such as outlets, lighting fixtures and electrical panels – they aren’t appliance repairmen.

There are three types of electricians: Master, Journeyman and Apprentice. Electrical licensing varies quite a bit by state. Some have licenses for apprentices and some do not. Some have a master’s rank while others stop at journeyman. Despite the differences, they all require a minimum amount of experience and usually classroom time.

  • Apprentice electricians aren’t usually licensed and spend 4 years learning the trade. Throughout that time, they work on a wide range of projects to learn to become a Journeyman. They’ll do basic work like installing fixtures and replacing outlets all the way to assisting in wiring a home. Regardless of the type of project, they must always be supervised by a Journeyman or Master electrician.

  • Journeymen work without supervision. In a few states, this is the highest level available and they can do all levels of work from wiring a new home to installing a light. In some states, they need a separate electrical contractor license to run a business. In places with a master’s level, a journeyman can do all work besides design new electrical systems.

  • Master electricians usually manage a shop, design new electrical systems in new construction and oversee both Journeyman and Apprentices. They typically bid new projects. Though they focus on larger projects, it’s not unheard of for a homeowner to request a Master Electrician for a house call. If you do, expect to spend up to 25% more for the visit.

Generally, you don’t tip electricians, but that’s not to say they don’t appreciate it if you do. You can offer them something to drink or eat, like coffee and donuts. Most will appreciate it if you do.

The education and certifications required to become an electrician vary by state, though they generally follow this list:

  1. Apprentice

    • Does not always require a license depending on the state.

    • Learns on the job under Journeyman and Master Electricians.

    • Usually needs 4 years on-the-job training before they can test for a Journeyman license. Many states also require a technical degree to advance.

    • Always require supervision.

  2. Journeyman

    • Needs between 8,000 to 10,000 hours of on-the-job training and usually 500 to 1,000 hours of classroom experience.

    • Can usually supervise apprentices.

    • They can diagnose and repair electrical problems.

  3. Master

    • Achieved after an additional two years (4,000 hours) working as a Journeyman and taking the Master Electrician Exam.

    • Besides diagnosing and repairing electrical systems, they also design them. In most places they run shops and inspect Journeyman and Apprentice work.

    • Not a recognized rank in all states.

  4. Electrical Contractor License is an optional license in some states for a Master Electrician to run a business. Some states have this instead of the Master license.

Electricians make an average of $26 per hour but it ranges with experience and licensing. An apprentice may make about half that while a Master Electrician may hit closer to $40 per hour. This figure represents how much they make; not how much they bill. Their salary is only one component of their costs. They must also figure in overhead, taxes, equipment, insurance and several other expenses.

Leave electrical work to the professionals. Electrical systems are complex and potentially hazardous when not handled and installed correctly. If it were easy, it wouldn’t take 4 years to become a journeyman or 6 years for a master’s license. If you are determined to forge ahead yourself, understand home electrical safety before beginning any project.Even for simple common electrical projects, a licensed pro is best. Not only is it safer, but contractors guarantee and insure their work. Hire a professional to keep your home’s electrical systems functioning properly and safely.
