If standby generators are being used, or the purchase of one is anticipated, be sure the unit is properly installed by a licensed electrician and approved by the local electrical inspector.

If the standby unit is to be wired through the fuse box or breaker panel, it must be isolated from the Co-op's service system, by means of an approved disconnect switch.

Improper use of a standby generator could cause dangerous backfeed on the Co-op's system and could cause death or injury to our linemen, working to restore power, or other individuals that may come in contact with a downed power line.

PLEASE DO NOT PUT SOMEONE'S LIFE IN DANGER!
