Home Generator Installation in Federal Way, WA
Full-Service Installation, Including Gas Piping, from a 2024 Best in the PNW Award Winner
Pacific Northwest storms don’t announce themselves. Power outages in Federal Way can last hours or days, and when they do, a whole-home backup generator or uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system can keep your food, heat, medical equipment, and security systems running. We’re Fuller Electric, a licensed and insured, family-owned electrical company based right here in Federal Way, and generator installation is one of our core services.

Our Standby Generator Installation Process
Installing a standby generator requires more than connecting a few wires. Proper permitting, load calculations, gas line connections, and automatic transfer switch integration all have to come together correctly for the system to work when you need it. Here’s how we handle it:
At Fuller Electric, we follow a four-step process to integrate your generator seamlessly into your home’s electrical system:
- Consultation: We start by discussing your power needs and assessing your home’s electrical system. This lets us determine the right generator size and type for your situation, accounting for your total electrical load, including critical appliances, HVAC, and any medical equipment.
- Installation: Once we’ve tailored a solution for your home, our licensed electricians get to work. We install the generator, connect it to your electrical panel, hook up the gas piping, and confirm everything is running correctly. If your panel needs upgrading to support the new system, we handle that too with our electrical panel upgrades service. All work meets Washington State electrical codes.
- Testing: After installation, we conduct thorough tests to confirm your generator performs correctly. No surprises when you need it most.
- Training: Before we leave, we walk you through how to operate and maintain your generator so you’re fully prepared from day one.
