Authorized Generac Generator Installers – Power Through Any Storm

In Northeastern Pennsylvania, power outages are a question of when, not if. Whether it’s a heavy winter ice storm in Archbald or a summer thunderstorm in Scranton, losing power means losing your heat, your refrigeration, and your comfort. At Cawley Electric, we specialize in the professional installation of Generac Automatic Standby Generators, providing you with a seamless power solution that works even when the grid fails.

Why Professional Installation Matters Installing a standby generator is complex work that requires precise load calculation and safe integration with your home’s electrical panel. We don't just drop a unit outside; we engineer a solution tailored to your specific needs.

  • Automatic Transfer Switches: Your Generac system kicks on automatically within seconds—whether you are home or away—and shuts off once the utility power is restored.

  • Proper Sizing: We perform a full load calculation to ensure your generator can handle your specific demands, whether you need to power just the essentials (furnace, well pump, fridge) or your entire home.

  • Code-Compliant Setup: We adhere strictly to NEC codes and manufacturer guidelines, ensuring your warranty is valid and your family is safe from back-feeding issues or exhaust hazards.

  • First 5 Years of Maintenance Included: We will perform an annual inspection and tune at no additional cost.

Keep your life running With a professionally installed Generac system from Cawley Electric, you can weather any condition with confidence.

Signs Your Home Needs an Electrician

  • Flickering Lights: This could indicate a loose connection or an overloaded circuit.

  • Two-Prong Outlets: These outdated outlets lack a ground wire, posing a shock hazard.

  • Warm Switches: If a switch feels hot to the touch, call us immediately.

  • Tripping Breakers: If using your microwave and toaster at the same time kills the power, you need a dedicated circuit.

Professional vs. DIY Electrical Work

While painting or landscaping can be a DIY project, electrical work should always be left to professionals.
