Mary Ellen from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2025. The generator was installed by another company and commissioned in May of 2013, and the servicing came to us nearly twelve years later. The first visit was a startup inspection – the assessment we run on any machine we did not install, establishing hours, condition and what has actually been done to it before committing to a schedule. The ten-year service followed in February of 2026. On a generator entering its second decade that first look matters more than the interval it happens to fall on, because the service history is somebody else’s and the machine is the only reliable record of it.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
How is a standby generator grounded?
The grounding and bonding arrangement depends on the transfer-switch configuration, and in particular on whether the neutral is switched and the generator therefore treated as a separately derived system. It is designed by a qualified electrical contractor rather than assumed from another installation.
What happens when the utility power comes back?
The system detects the return of acceptable utility power and transfers the house back automatically. The generator then runs through a programmed cool-down before shutting off and returning to standby. Nobody has to switch anything back by hand.
Can the platform height be read off the FEMA flood map?
Not necessarily. The map matters, but it may not carry every elevation the platform design needs. An Elevation Certificate, a surveyed ground elevation, the Base Flood Elevation, the Design Flood Elevation, the local freeboard and the municipal flood ordinance can all bear on it, so the height is calculated for the specific property.
