Robert from Kendall Park, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2018. He signed in early September and we had the generator commissioned by late November, a 20 kW Generac standby unit tied to a 200-amp automatic transfer switch sized to carry the house rather than a handful of circuits. Robert holds our PowerBase Diamond service plan, the top tier, which keeps the generator on a scheduled maintenance cycle with monitoring between visits. Kendall Park is in Middlesex County, where we install and maintain standby generators for homeowners throughout the year.
I had a generator installed by Green Sun Energy. in 2018. I am extremely satisfied with Green Sun. Green Sun explained the installation process well, very professional. I would highly recommend Green Sun Energy to those thinking or planning to install a generator.
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Robert. The 20 kW Generac at your home in Kendall Park went in during 2018 and runs through a 200-amp transfer switch, so the whole house changes over on its own. Explaining the process before it starts is what keeps an install calm, and we are glad it has stayed satisfying since.
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 Kendall Park homeowners
What is the difference between essential circuits and whole-house backup?
An essential-circuits system transfers a defined set of circuits through a smaller transfer switch rather than the whole electrical service. It is a deliberate design rather than a lesser one: the circuits that matter during an outage are chosen in advance, and the generator only ever has to carry those.
Can the generator go in the back yard?
Yes, provided the location complies with the installation instructions and the applicable state and municipal requirements. A distant back-yard position lengthens the electrical and gas runs, which can call for larger conductors or larger gas piping and can raise the cost of the installation.
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Kendall Park 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.
