What will you do next power outage?

Next power outage:
  1. Plug In your generator into your switchboard with 1 lead.
  2. Switch Over from Ergon Supply to Your Generators Supply

AND YOUR DONE!

Or you could.....
  1. Pull out the generator....
  2. Try and find enough spare extension leads....
  3. Run your leads out through the house, through doorways or windows, preventing you from locking the house....
  4. Unplug the fridge and modem and plug them into the tangled mess of extension leads you have found....
  5. Trip over extension leads as you go back outside to start the generator....
  6. Realize you need more leads to plugin the phone charger and the kids want to be able to watch that DVD they already watched a million times....
  7. Realize that it is bloody hot without the ceiling fans or air-con running - and you cant plug them in on an extension lead...
  8. The evening dwells on you as you also realize you need new batteries for the torches, because the lights in your house still don't work....

​HOW CAN I PLUG MY GENERATOR INTO MY HOUSE SO I CAN POWER MY WHOLE HOME?

To safely power your home from another power source other than the network ( like Ergon ), you would need to have an appropriate power inlet, and a 'changeover switch' installed at your electricity metering box.

This needs to be completed by a qualified electrician.

We specialize in the installation of generator switch's for homes in Queensland.

How do I know if i can have a changeover switch installed?

Each home can be a little different. Some are old, some are new, you may have solar, or multiple electricity tarriffs for things like hot water and air-conditioners.

These things will dictate the way a changeover switch can be installed at your house.

If you have a newer house, and your metering panel is 'up to code', AND there is enough available space to add the changeover switch components, then it is quite a simple process.

On the other hand, if your house is a bit on the aged side of things, your meter panel may be a bit 'outdated' and not quiet 'up to code'. 

Maybe there is no more space to add anymore additional equipment inside your electricity metering panel?

I have Solar, can I still run on a generator?

We have ALL bases covered and can work out exactly what will need to be done.

We contacted GENERATOR SWITCH QLD to have a changeover switch and inlet installed. Great info, friendly service. They even had their own generator to test it all with, as we hadn't bought ours yet. Highly recommend.                Sonya M.
