Reliable Power When You Need It Most: The Value of a Home Standby Generator
Wouldn’t it be great to know your power will never go out? With a home standby generator, you can take control of your home’s power and protect what matters most. Since 1983, our team has been helping homeowners keep the lights on from our shop in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin—providing trusted solutions built for Southeast Wisconsin’s demanding conditions.
Why Southeast Wisconsin Homes Need Backup Power
Our region experiences frequent power disruptions due to an aging electrical infrastructure and challenging weather. Extreme winter storms, summer thunderstorms, high winds, and an overworked power grid can all cause unexpected outages—often at the worst possible times. When electricity fails during peak heat or bitter cold, the risks to safety, comfort, and property increase quickly.
How a Whole Home Standby Generator Works
Unlike portable generators, a whole home standby generator is permanently installed and fully automatic:
- Automatic Detection: The system continuously monitors utility power and starts within seconds of an outage.
- Safe Power Transfer: A transfer switch disconnects your home from the grid and safely supplies generator power.
- Reliable Fuel Supply: Powered by natural gas or propane, there’s no manual refueling—even during extended outages.
- Comprehensive Coverage: Power stays on for essentials like heating and cooling, refrigeration, sump pumps, internet, medical equipment, and more.
Safety, Comfort, and Security—Guaranteed
A standby generator from Current Electric and Generac delivers dependable electricity when you need it most. Your sump pump keeps running, your lights stay on, and your furnace or air conditioning continues to operate. For vulnerable family members, electrically powered medical equipment remains reliable.
Comfort matters, too. From Grafton to Racine, Brookfield to Oconomowoc, we all face the same Wisconsin weather. Our customers don’t risk their family’s safety or comfort during outages—no matter how long they last.
Security is equally important. A well-lit home is a safer home. With a standby generator, security systems stay active and basements stay dry, protecting your property and peace of mind.
