Central Electric & Generator - Cheshire's Qualified Electrical Company

Yes, aluminum wiring in older homes can be a safety hazard due to oxidation and connection issues that may lead to overheating. For Cheshire residents, our licensed electricians are experienced in evaluating aluminum wiring systems. We can perform a thorough electrical inspection to identify any risks and provide solutions, which may include installing approved connectors (COPALUM or AlumiConn) at outlets and switches or recommending a partial rewire with modern copper wiring to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and reliable.

Our generator installation is a comprehensive, design-build process. As authorized dealers for brands like Cummins and Generac, we start with a site assessment at your Cheshire home to determine the correct size and placement. Our licensed team handles all aspects: obtaining permits, pouring a concrete pad if needed, installing the automatic transfer switch and unit, and connecting it to your home's electrical panel. We ensure the installation meets all local codes and provide a full demonstration so you feel confident operating your new backup power system.

Absolutely. While we are authorized dealers for several leading brands like AVK, Stamford Newage, and Briggs & Stratton, our expertise isn't limited. We service and repair all makes and models of generators. Our technicians have the training and diagnostic tools to troubleshoot and fix issues on any unit, ensuring Cheshire homeowners with less common brands still have access to reliable, professional repair services to keep their backup power ready for any outage.
