Generators
When the power goes out, a backup generator keeps the essentials running — or your whole home or business, depending on how the system is set up. Parker Service Company helps customers across Auburn, Opelika, and East Alabama plan and install generator systems that fit their needs.
We focus on the electrical side: coordinating sizing, installing the transfer switch, and making the connection to your panel safe and code-conscious.
Who this is for
- Homeowners who want backup power for outages
- Families who rely on medical equipment, well pumps, or sump pumps
- Business owners who can't afford extended downtime
- Anyone planning ahead for storm season in Alabama
What a generator project involves
- Talking through what you want to power — essentials only or the whole property
- Coordinating generator sizing for your load
- Installing an automatic or manual transfer switch
- Connecting safely to your electrical panel
- Planning placement, and coordinating fuel and pad work as needed
- Discussing maintenance considerations so the system is ready when you need it
Why professional electrical work matters
A generator has to connect to your home's electrical system safely. A properly installed transfer switch is essential — it keeps power from back-feeding onto the utility lines, which protects both your equipment and the people working on those lines.
Professional installation also helps make sure the system is sized sensibly and wired to code, so it actually performs when an outage hits.
