Dr Electric CSRA Releases Comprehensive Guide Explaining Home Generator Installation Timelines for CSRA Homeowners
Augusta, GA — Dr Electric CSRA, a leading electrical services provider serving Augusta and the Central Savannah River Area, has released a detailed new homeowner guide explaining how long home generator installation really takes — including consultation, permitting, on-site installation days, and final inspection. The guide offers clear expectations for homeowners planning a generator install or whole home power backup system, helping them prepare effectively and avoid common delays.
“Homeowners deserve clarity when planning a standby generator,” said Jesse Burnett, Owner & Operator of Dr Electric CSRA. “Many people assume installation is a simple one-day job, but permitting, fuel coordination, and electrical requirements all impact the timeline. Our goal with this guide is to make the process predictable, understandable, and stress-free.”
The guide outlines the three major phases of generator installation:
Pre-Installation Planning
Consultation, load calculations, generator sizing, fuel planning, and permitting. Local permitting typically takes 1–4 weeks.Physical Installation
Pad prep, generator placement, conduit/fuel work, wiring, and automatic transfer switch (ATS) integration. Most installations take 1–3 days, with a brief planned outage lasting 1–6 hours.Post-Installation Commissioning & Inspection
ATS programming, load testing, documentation, and final municipal inspection — usually completed within several days to one week.
Local factors across Augusta, Evans, Martinez, and Grovetown can influence the total timeline. Dr Electric CSRA’s familiarity with CSRA permitting, inspector scheduling, and multi-trade coordination helps reduce delays and ensure smooth project flow.
“Choosing a licensed, local installer is the best way to guarantee safe, code-compliant installation,” added Burnett. “We manage the entire process from permits to final testing so our customers know exactly what to expect.”
