Emigrant Gap solar electrician and battery backup installation FAQs

Will my solar work during an outage?

Standard grid-tied solar shuts down when the grid does. To keep power on you need a battery or other backup-capable equipment that disconnects from the grid automatically. We can add that to many existing systems.

How many batteries do I need?

One battery typically carries lights, refrigeration, internet and outlets overnight. Running air conditioning or a well pump takes more. We size storage around the circuits you actually want backed up.

Do I need a panel upgrade to add solar?

Sometimes. It depends on your panel's bus rating and main breaker size. We check that first and explain the options, including electrical panel upgrades.

Battery or generator for backup?

Batteries are quiet, automatic and recharge from solar. Generators run longer on fuel. Some Emigrant Gap properties use both. See generator installation for the other side of the comparison.

In customers' words

After two long outages we had a standby generator put in. They sized it properly instead of pushing the biggest unit, and showed us how the transfer switch works.

Rob H.Standby generator

They installed our Level 2 charger in the garage and explained the load calculation in plain English. Clean conduit run, no mess, and the price matched the quote.

Priya S.EV charger installation

We needed new circuits and lighting before opening our shop. Bayshore worked around our contractor's schedule and the inspection passed the first time.
