Generator Interlocks and Power Inlets
An interlock is the safe way to feed selected circuits from a portable generator.
​
It's usually cheaper than whole-home standby—and a lot safer than a dryer-outlet workaround.
​
Purple Electric installs interlocks and outdoor inlets to code around Coeur d'Alene and Spokane. Call or text 208-292-6010.
​
How it works
​
We fit a listed interlock to your panel and an outdoor inlet. You plug in the portable, follow the interlock steps, and run the circuits you planned-fridge, furnace, a few lights-without backfeeding the utility.
​
Who it fits
​
You're home during outages, you own (or will buy) a portable, and selected circuits are enough. If you need automatic backup when nobody's home, ask about standby instead.
​
What we'll check
​
Your panel type, what must stay on, and whether an interlock is even available for that panel. Then you get a clear yes/no and a realistic path.
