What is a Portable Generator Outlet?
A portable generator outlet is a special outlet that gets installed on the side of your home. The outlet is designed so that you can plug the generator directly into the outlet. From there, the outlet powers pre-determined outlets, lights, and appliances in your home. As long as the outlet is connected to the generator while it's running, you can power anything that the generator outlet is connected to.
Benefits of Portable Generator Outlet Installation
If you don't have a portable generator outlet on your home, the alternative is to run extension cords from the generator to various appliances and outlets in your home. In addition to being inconvenient and messy, this is also extremely unsafe.
Therefore, here are some of the benefits of steering clear of this option and installing a generator outlet.
- Much safer than extension cords
- No clutter from extension cords on the ground
- You don't need to leave a door or window open to allow access for the extension cord
- Provides automatic power to select lights, appliances, and outlets
