Keep your home or business running while others can't

​

Power outages due to bad weather are increasing in frequency. Losing power in your home for just a few hours means spoiled food, no way to charge electronics, and discomfort for you and your family. Losing power at your business can mean thousands of dollars of lost revenue or worse. Plan ahead by installing a back-up power generator with Bell Electric.

 

Whether you need a 6-kilowatt emergency generator for your home or a

60-kilowatt generator for your business, there's a model that will work for you.

We'll tailor a package to your needs and budget, and professionally install

a power generation system that will kick in whenever the power goes out. 

​

 

What size back-up power solution do you need?

​

Part of our proven generator-installation process includes visiting your home or business to get a better understanding of your energy usage and backup power objectives. We design and size a power generation system that is both practical and cost-effective for your bottom line. Scroll down to check out some common generator sizes.

Residential Cummins generator installation 

Blacksburg

 

This residential generator provides backup power to an entire home with a 400 amp service. To meet the needs of the homeowner, we installed a propane-fueled Cummins

generator that connects to the web, allowing the owner to manage and monitor everything from an app on their phone.
