Standby Generator Installation in Millstone Township, NJ | A 26 kW Generac on a 300-Amp Switch

Millstone Township, NJ · Client since November 2023

Mathew from Millstone Township, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2023. The machine is a Generac 7290 rated 26 kW on propane and 22.5 kW on natural gas, running on natural gas, on a 300-amp transfer switch, and it was commissioned in December of 2023. At about 6,000 square feet the house needs the top of the air-cooled range and a switch rated for the whole service – a 300-amp switch is not a larger version of a 200-amp one, it is a different class of gear. Green Sun has serviced it in October of 2024 and October of 2025, and it reports to remote monitoring in between.

Glen and his team at Green Sun provided us with a great whole-house generator and an even better experience. They recommended the right equipment to meet our needs and handled all the details including permits, delivery, installation, inspections, and teaching us how everything works. It’s something we’ve wanted for a long time, we just had to find the contractor. Imagine this… they told us what they’d do and then they did it. Unique, right? Oh, and they kept us updated at every step. I’d say Green Sun provided gold service and highly recommend you call them too.

Green Sun Energy Services replied

Thank you, Mathew. Doing what we said we would do should not be remarkable, and the fact that it sometimes is says more about the trade than about us. Permits, delivery, installation, inspections and the handover on the whole-house generator were ours to carry, and keeping you posted through all of them is part of the same job.

Why Mathew chose Green Sun Energy Services

Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Why they chose us

Mathew had wanted a whole-house standby generator for a long time and simply needed to find a contractor who would follow through. Green Sun Energy Services earned that trust by doing exactly what they said they would do — handling permits, delivery, installation, inspections, and a full handover on the Generac 26 kW natural gas generator, then keeping Mathew informed at every step along the way. The managed whole-house automatic transfer switch and 300-amp service gave the 6,000-square-foot home complete backup coverage, and the team made sure Mathew understood how everything worked before they left. "They told us what they'd do and then they did it" — straightforward accountability, start to finish, was the reason for the choice.

Standby generator questions from Millstone Township homeowners

What is Base Flood Elevation and why does it matter here?

Base Flood Elevation is the elevation associated with the base flood -- generally the flood with a one percent chance of being reached or exceeded in any year. For a generator it is often the starting point for working out how high the mechanical and electrical equipment has to be protected or raised.

Can the exercise time be changed?

Yes, though the procedure depends on the controller and the model, and older and newer control platforms use different setup interfaces. Remote monitoring may also offer it, depending on the generator.

What happens if the manufacturer and Millstone Township 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.
