Safe, Simple Power Solutions for
Portable Generator Owners
Portable generators are a smart, flexible solution for emergency power — but without the proper setup, they can be dangerous or ineffective. At Jenlor Electric, we install safe, code-compliant generator inlets, interlock kits, and transfer switches that let you power key circuits in your home with ease.
Based in Chester, NJ and proudly serving the surrounding areas, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners stay prepared for outages with expertly installed portable generator systems.
What Is a
Portable Generator Hookup?
A portable generator hookup is a dedicated connection between your portable generator and your home’s electrical panel. Instead of running extension cords through doors and windows, you simply plug the generator into an exterior inlet and power pre-selected circuits safely from inside your panel.
We offer several installation options based on your needs:
- Generator Inlet Box Installation – Mounts outside your home for safe generator connection
- Manual Transfer Switches – Choose which circuits to power with a flip of a switch
- Interlock Kits – A cost-effective way to backfeed power through your main panel safely
- Dedicated Generator Panels – Optional sub-panels for priority loads like sump pumps, heat, or lighting
