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.
