Why is my generator running but not producing power?

If your generator’s engine runs but doesn’t produce electricity, there are a few possible culprits. The most common is a loss of residual magnetism, which can happen if the generator hasn’t been used in a while or was shut down under load. In these cases, our electricians can “flash the field,” which involves briefly applying a 12V DC current to restore magnetism.

Other issues include tripped breakers, faulty voltage regulators, worn brushes, or broken capacitors. Our team uses specialized tools to pinpoint faults and safely repair everything from winding issues to surge protection and transfer switch failures—all while keeping your system compliant and secure!

How do I troubleshoot a generator that won’t start?

Start by checking the basics—make sure you have fresh fuel, clean oil, and a working spark plug. Double-check your choke position and inspect the air filter, fuel lines, and battery (for electric start models).

If breakers are tripped or the starter motor is making odd sounds, these could point to deeper electrical issues. When in doubt, it’s best to call Electric Concepts. We handle advanced diagnostics, repairs, and safety checks—so your generator is ready when you need it most.

How long does it take to install a home standby generator?

Installation time depends on your system. A partial-home setup with a subpanel usually takes about a day, while a whole-home standby generator with an automatic transfer switch may take one to two days.

Factors like permitting, fuel source (natural gas vs. propane), and site conditions (such as conduit runs or pad installation) can also affect the timeline. Don’t worry—our team will walk you through each step of the generator installation process so you know exactly what to expect.
