Electric generator shop
Power outages are part of coastal living in Southport NC and the surrounding areas from St. James to Marina village in Riverlights. Storms, hurricanes, and grid issues can leave homes without power for hours or days at a time. For many homeowners, backup power is not just about convenience, it is about keeping water systems running, protecting food and medications, and maintaining safe indoor conditions. Generator systems need to be sized, installed, and maintained correctly to work ensure they work when they are needed the most.
WaveRider Electric & Automation operates a full electric generator shop based in Bolivia, focused on residential and commercial standby systems designed for coastal conditions. Generator work along the coast requires special consideration due to salt air, moisture, hurricanes, and long run times. Our high quality generator services are built around reliability, safety, and long-term performance.
Transfer Switch Installation
Transfer switches are a critical part of any standby generator system. They isolate the home from the utility during an outage and allow the generator to supply power safely. Our transfer switch installations ensure the generator operates correctly and meets electrical code requirements, protecting both the home and utility workers.
Portable Generator Hookup
Looking for a more affordable backup power solution? A portable generator hookup, when installed correctly with a manual transfer switch, can be a safe and effective way to power essential circuits during an outage. We can install a dedicated inlet box and transfer switch, allowing you to safely connect your portable generator and power your refrigerator, lights, and other critical appliances without the danger of running extension cords through your home.
Whole House generator installation
Whole house generators provide automatic backup power during outages without manual setup. These systems start on their own and supply power to selected circuits or the entire home. Our whole house generator installation includes load calculations by an Electrical Engineer, generator placement, transfer switch installation, and full system testing so the generator responds properly when utility power is lost. We use quality materials that stand up to the coastal climate so your generator will serve your needs for decades to come.
Generator Maintenance
Generators that are not maintained regularly often fail when they are needed most. Coastal conditions accelerate corrosion, battery wear, and fuel system issues. Our generator maintenance in Bolivia NC includes inspections, operational testing, and system checks to help keep standby generators ready for storm season and extended outages.
generator repair
When a generator does not start, shuts down unexpectedly, or displays warning codes, the problem needs to be identified and corrected properly. Generator repairs often involve electrical controls, transfer switches, or damaged components affected by moisture or age. Our generator repair in Bolivia NC focuses on diagnosing the root cause instead of temporary fixes.
