Leonardo from Springfield, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2018. He signed in the middle of June and the generator was commissioned in the third week of September, a 9 kW Generac in an aluminium enclosure on its own pad, wired to a sixteen-circuit switch. It covers 1,440 square feet with a refrigerator, the laundry and a sump pump. A PowerBase plan has kept it serviced since. Springfield is in Union County.
Why Leonardo chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Springfield homeowners
How does the starting battery stay charged?
The system includes battery-charging provisions so the starting battery stays ready while the generator waits for an outage. A charging fault, a blown fuse, a wiring problem or simply a tired battery can stop a generator starting when it is needed, which is why battery condition is part of routine maintenance rather than an afterthought.
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Springfield home supply a generator?
Often yes, but the gas system has to be evaluated first. The review covers the generator's BTU demand, meter capacity, available pressure, regulator capacity, pipe diameter and length, and every other gas appliance in the house -- furnace, boiler, water heater, range and fireplace among them.
Does a 200-amp service need a 200-amp transfer switch?
A transfer switch installed in the service path has to be rated appropriately for the service and the configuration. A 200-amp service commonly uses a 200-amp service-rated switch, but the actual design is confirmed by the electrician rather than assumed from the service size.
