GenerLink
Safe Generator Connection
Many Southwest Florida residents use portable electric generators to power their homes during electrical outages. While generators are a convenience, if used improperly they can cause hazardous conditions for the homeowner and for electric crews working in the area.
GenerLink™ offered by LCEC eliminates the use of extension cords and other hazardous connections by providing a safe connection from the electric meter directly to the generator.
GenerLink™ also detects when a generator is operating and automatically disconnects from the utility grid, eliminating dangerous backfeed.
Benefits of GenerLink™
- Easiest and safest generator connection.
- Allows customers to run virtually any appliances up to the capacity of their generator.
- Easily installed behind the electric meter by a certified LCEC technician.
- Connection at the meter keeps your portable generator outside where it is safe.
- Seven year manufacturer’s warranty.
