Standby Generator Installation and Standby Generator Service in Farmingdale, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Robert from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2014. He and Isabel signed in the middle of September and the generator was commissioned on the first of December, a 20 kW Generac in a steel enclosure on its own pad behind a 200-amp service-rated switch with two power management modules. It covers 2,700 square feet with a refrigerator, a dishwasher and the laundry. A PowerBase plan has kept it serviced since. Farmingdale is in Monmouth County.
Why Robert chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Farmingdale homeowners
How much room does a technician need around the machine?
Enough to satisfy the model-specific service clearances and to open the enclosure and remove service panels safely. Routine work reaches the engine, air filter, oil filter, spark plugs, battery, controller, fuel system and wiring compartments, so the space has to be real rather than nominal.
Will a 20 kW generator run an entire Farmingdale house?
For many homes, yes, but that does not mean every load can run at the same moment. Houses with two central air conditioners, electric heat, EV charging, pool equipment or electric cooking may need load management or a larger machine. The answer comes from a load calculation rather than from the phrase whole house.
Does a permanently installed generator need a disconnect?
Yes. Permanently installed generators fall under the disconnecting-means requirements of the National Electrical Code's generator article, and the equipment and electrical design have to satisfy those requirements alongside the machine's own listing and instructions.
