Keeping power on with a backup generator

Backup generators are powerful tools that provide emergency power and can keep critical equipment running. A backup generator must be properly installed and used to maximize its efficiency and safety. Improper installation and operation can create a range of health and safety risks. To prevent these risks, owners must carefully follow the manufacturer's written documentation and local building codes. Bad installation can result in dangerous conditions and even failure of critical equipment.

Flooding can cause major damage to underground and aboveground electrical devices. Flooding can also cause additional damage to electrical equipment if it is not turned off. Flooding makes it hard for maintenance crews access to the equipment and make repairs. A backup generator can keep the equipment functioning until the electric utility restores power.
