An Alternative Solution to Power Outages

Install A Generator Transfer Switch By Chesapeake Electric


At Chesapeake Electric, we understand that a standby generator isn’t a fit for everyone. For many Maryland residents, you just don’t lose power enough to warrant the cost of a standby generator, but you still want a solution that allows you power during the unfortunate circumstance of a power outage.

Does that sound like you? If it does, a generator manual transfer switch may be the way to go.

With a manual transfer switch, you can designate 8-10 circuits on your electric panel that you would want to be able to power with a smaller portable generator! For a fraction of the price, you can ensure your sump pump has power, your food doesn’t spoil in the fridge, and your family is able to live comfortably while you wait for the power to return.

The Benefits Of A Generator Manual Transfer Switch


When you lose power at home, having one of our home standby generators can save you money, hassle, and priceless peace of mind. The essentials of heat and air conditioning that we all take for granted leave us uncomfortable and irritated when they shut down without warning. Other amenities, like our computers, televisions, phones, and the ability to charge them all, can disrupt our lives when they suddenly no longer work. In the event of a power outage, having a home standby generator installed at your residential property can not only return your investment in purchasing and installation but also save you thousands of dollars.

Generator Installation
  • No Relocating Costs - Gone are the days of having to relocate your entire family during a power outage. Having to pay for a hotel for even one night can cost several hundred dollars, and sometimes power outages last weeks or even months at a time! Having a manual transfer switch will allow you to wait in your own home for the power to come back on rather than wasting time and money on a hotel stay.
  • No Flooding - When utility power fails, and your basement sump pump stops running, flooding becomes more likely. Clean-up and remodels afterward can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. With a manual transfer switch, you can ensure that your sump pump will be able to function optimally, preventing damages done to your basement because of flooding.
  • No Spoiled Food - If the power goes out, it’s only a matter of time before the food in your refrigerator goes bad. Having to throw out all your food during a power outage is not only wasteful, but it is also costly. When you have a portable generator transfer switch, you can ensure your food stays fresh, and your bellies stay full!
  • Peace of Mind - Peace of mind is priceless. You can finally feel at ease knowing regardless of the power-outage situation, you have back-up power in your home when you need it the most. With just a simple plug in and a switch, your home and be back up and running while you wait for the power to return.

Our experience with this company has been excellent! We had an outlet in a bedroom start sparking and this company sent someone out immediately to assist. Christian came through and evaluated our home, noting aluminum wiring tied into the outlets which caused damage to that particular box and resulted in an electrical fire. Christian was very transparent and open about available packages and prices for services to replace our outlets and switches to a safe standard. Katie’s courtesy texts ahead of appointments were extremely helpful. Their office was also very understanding and flexible when it came to scheduling changes. In particular, electricians Terry and David made for an exceptional experience. They are were very professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to our questions and concerns. They were transparent with the plans for our services and made sure we understood prior to starting each day. They noted any issues they came across during their work. They even educated us on our system, informed and showed us where there were signs of wear, and told us what to look for in the future to ensure our safety. We found their work ethic, communication, and workmanship to be impeccable. They were both timely with their work while giving our system its due attention. We highly recommend this company.

We had an outlet that was crackling and causing outages throughout our apartment, so we needed someone to come help us asap. Once we called Chesapeake Electric, Ethan and Casey were onsite within 2 hours. They both were incredibly friendly and helpful, and diagnosed the issue quickly. Ethan took the time to take me through my options and went out of his way to make sure I understood each one. When Ethan and Casey had to leave due to scheduling, Terry and David came through and were just as friendly and knowledgeable. They fixed my issue quickly, took the time to explain everything that they did/found, and Terry even pointed out an outlet in my bathroom that wasn't up to code and offered to add it to their scope. I had an incredible experience and could not recommend Chesapeake Electric's services more. We will absolutely use their services again and will be specifically requesting to work with Ethan, Casey, Terry, and David. Thank you!!!
