Standby Generator Installation in Federal Way
Power outages in Western Washington's storm season can last hours โ or days. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps your lights on, your heat running, and your refrigerator cold without you lifting a finger. Short Stop Electrical LLC installs generator transfer switches and connects portable or standby generators for homes throughout Tacoma and Western Washington.
We handle the electrical side of generator installs: automatic transfer switch (ATS) wiring, manual transfer switch (interlock kit) installation, generator inlet box installation, load calculation to size your circuits, and permit coordination. We work alongside your generator supplier or can recommend local propane/natural gas contractors for fuel hookup.
Our work is permitted, inspected, and done to code โ keeping your homeowner's insurance valid and your family safe from backfeed hazards.
We serve Federal Way and all of King County. Our team is familiar with local permit requirements and building departments, so your project is code-compliant and passes inspection the first time.
