Expert Generator Transfer Switch Installation in Rocklin, CA

When the power goes out in Rocklin, having a generator provides invaluable peace of mind. However, to use your generator safely and effectively, a transfer switch is not just a convenience—it’s a critical safety component. At AirWorks Solutions, we provide professional, code-compliant installation of generator transfer switches, ensuring your home or business can seamlessly and safely transition to backup power during any outage.

Our licensed electricians specialize in integrating both automatic and manual transfer switches with your existing electrical system. A proper installation protects your sensitive electronics, your generator, and most importantly, the utility workers restoring power to your neighborhood.

Why a Transfer Switch is Essential for Your Generator

Connecting a generator directly to your home’s electrical panel without a transfer switch is extremely dangerous and violates national and local electrical codes. This hazardous practice, known as back-feeding, can send electricity from your generator back into the utility lines, creating a life-threatening risk for line workers. A professionally installed transfer switch from AirWorks Solutions is the only approved method to safely power your home’s circuits with a generator.

Key benefits of a transfer switch include:

Absolute Safety: Completely isolates your home’s electrical system from the grid before engaging generator power, eliminating the risk of back-feeding.
Legal & Code Compliance: Installation by a licensed electrician ensures compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and Rocklin/Placer County building codes, helping pass inspections and maintain homeowner’s insurance.
Protection for Your Appliances: Delivers stable power to safeguard sensitive electronics like computers, TVs, and modern appliances from surges.
Appliance and Generator Protection: Prevents generator damage when grid power is restored, ensuring the two sources never connect simultaneously.
Convenience and Simplicity: Eliminates the need for multiple extension cords, allowing you to power entire circuits directly from your panel, including hardwired items such as furnaces, well pumps, and air conditioners.

Choosing the Right Transfer Switch for Your Needs

The best transfer switch for your property depends on your generator type, your budget, and your outage power management goals. At AirWorks Solutions, we install a complete range of solutions to meet the unique needs of Rocklin homeowners.

Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS)

An ATS offers the ultimate convenience and hands-off operation, ideal for standby, whole-home generators.

How it Works: Monitors utility power and automatically switches to generator power when an outage is detected, then returns to grid power once restored.
Best For: Homeowners with permanently installed standby generators who want uninterrupted power for critical systems like medical equipment, sump pumps, and HVAC systems.

Manual Transfer Switches

A cost-effective, reliable option popular with portable generators.

How it Works: Connect your portable generator to a dedicated inlet box, then manually switch selected circuits from grid to generator power.
Best For: Homeowners who want safe, selective power supply to essentials such as refrigerators, lights, and key outlets.

Generator Interlock Kits

A budget-friendly, code-compliant solution that works directly on your main electrical panel.

How it Works: A sliding plate prevents the main utility breaker and generator back-feed breaker from being on at the same time.
Best For: Homeowners with adequate panel space seeking the most affordable method to power existing circuits.

Our Comprehensive Installation Process

We follow a thorough, transparent process to ensure a safe and reliable installation from start to finish:

On-Site Consultation & Load Calculation: We assess your electrical panel, discuss which circuits to power, and match your generator’s capacity to the right transfer switch.
System Design & Selection: We help you choose the optimal switch—automatic, manual, or interlock—based on your goals, budget, and generator type.
Permit Management: Our team handles the permit process with the City of Rocklin to ensure code compliance.
Professional Installation: Licensed electricians mount and wire the transfer switch or interlock kit, and install a power inlet box if needed.
System Testing & Walkthrough: We simulate a power outage, test the setup, and provide a detailed demonstration so you feel confident operating your system.
