Louis from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2013. He signed in early June and the generator was commissioned in the second week of October, an 8 kW Generac in a steel enclosure on its own pad, with a ten-circuit switch covering 300 square feet and a refrigerator. That is the smallest load survey in our records, and it is worth saying plainly that a job that size still gets a proper survey and a proper install. Farmingdale is in Monmouth County.
Why Louis 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
Does the generator start on its own?
Yes. A properly installed standby generator left in AUTO is designed to start automatically when it detects an unacceptable loss of utility power. The transfer system then moves the household loads across, and when acceptable utility power returns it transfers them back and the generator runs through its programmed shutdown.
What happens if the manufacturer and Farmingdale disagree?
The installation has to satisfy all applicable requirements. A manufacturer's listing cannot be ignored, and a manufacturer's minimum clearance does not cancel a municipal zoning requirement. Where requirements conflict or the interpretation is uncertain, the Authority Having Jurisdiction is consulted before the work goes in rather than after.
What does a whole-house generator actually mean?
Whole-house generally means the transfer equipment serves the home's main electrical system rather than a small emergency-circuit panel. It does not promise unlimited capacity. High-demand appliances may still be prioritized or briefly shed while generator capacity is being used elsewhere.
