Synopsis:
It’s no surprise that you only need your generator when you least want to go outside to get it: Massive snow storms, hazardous accidents around power lines, you name it! So what if you didn’t have to? Home batteries are becoming increasingly powerful, user-friendly, and cost-effective, so much so that now there are options which don’t even require professional installation to back-up your whole home! With a little over $100 in materials, here’s how you can ready your home for battery back-up and stop running extension cords through the window to your generator out in the snow!

We would identify this project as “Advanced DIY-friendly”. If you are not comfortable or knowledgeable around electricity, please contact a professional.

Laced within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
