When installing a generator, you'll typically work with three main component groups: the generator itself, a transfer switch, and the fuel system. The transfer switch automatically reroutes power from the utility to the generator during an outage. You'll also need a sturdy concrete pad for the generator base, proper ventilation ducts, and a fuel line that meets local code. Don't forget the battery, a spark arrestor if required, and a weatherproof cover for the control panel.
