Generac 7328 installation for the home you want to keep running

When the power goes out, you want the refrigerator running, useful light in the house and a comfortable place for your family to settle in. Live Wire Electric installs Generac 7328 standby generator systems with your everyday priorities at the center of the plan.

Our licensed electricians help you decide what to back up, plan the electrical work and understand the complete project. We work with homeowners across King and Snohomish counties to turn a generator purchase into a practical plan for their home.

Our starting point
The lights, appliances and comfort you want to keep

Tell us what you want an outage to feel like

Do you need to keep working from home, protect food in the freezer or keep a pump available? We start with those needs, then review your heating equipment, major appliances and electrical service. Together, we separate essential loads from things you can comfortably postpone, such as laundry or EV charging.

That conversation gives the installation a clear purpose. We check running demand and motor starting needs, then explain any load controls in everyday terms: what stays available, what may pause and how the plan supports your household.

PSE identifies fall and winter wind and snow storms as common causes of wider Pacific Northwest outages. We use that regional context to ask practical questions about a dark evening at your house: where you gather, which rooms need light and what equipment supports your comfort. Power for a router can be included, but internet availability still depends on the provider's network.

We make the 7328 package clear before you buy

The 7328 is Generac's cellular-generation 26 kW package with transfer equipment. The 7327 is the generator-only counterpart, while Guardian 7291 belongs to the earlier Wi-Fi generation. We identify the actual model and transfer switch in your scope so you can understand what you are buying and compare proposals fairly.

If you already have a generator, we inspect the existing transfer equipment and controls before recommending reuse. Keeping suitable equipment can be useful, but we first confirm compatibility and condition rather than letting a similar model name decide the project.

A good installation fits your property

We look at the generator location and the routes for electrical and fuel connections together. Windows, doors, air intakes, drainage and room for future service all affect the layout. A spot beside the panel may look convenient, yet another location may work better for the complete installation.

We use your property address to establish the applicable permit and utility coordination. You can show us possible locations without needing to measure clearances or open equipment yourself. We explain the practical choices and identify the site preparation the project needs.

Know who is handling every part of the job

Our electrical scope covers the transfer arrangement, wiring routes, service changes where needed and the load controls included in your plan. We also identify responsibilities for fuel piping, meter or regulator changes, pad preparation and supported startup. You should know which work we are quoting and where another provider is involved.

We include monitoring in the handoff discussion. Cellular coverage, account ownership and alert recipients matter if you want useful updates from the system. We explain how monitoring fits alongside regular maintenance and transfer testing, so an app notification has a clear next step.

Get a quote built around your home

Generator placement, trenching, feeder length, access and changes to existing electrical equipment can all affect installation cost. We review those conditions before presenting the scope, and call out allowances or remaining decisions. The generator's equipment price alone cannot describe the work your home needs.

To get started with Live Wire, send your address, a major-appliance list and photos of the closed panel and possible outdoor locations. Tell us about future additions, too. A planned heat pump or second EV can change how you want to use backup power, even if it is not part of today's installation.

Common questions

Will a 26 kW generator run everything in my house?

We work that out from your actual loads and fuel supply. Some homes need selected loads delayed or managed when demand rises. We explain the operating plan before installation so you know how to use backup power comfortably.

What is included with the Generac 7328?

Generac identifies 7328 as the cellular 26 kW transfer-switch package. We confirm the supplied switch and whether it fits your electrical service. Wiring, placement, fuel work and other site needs are part of the installation scope.

Can you use my existing transfer switch?

We can evaluate it. We check its model, condition, controls and compatibility with the proposed generator before including reuse in your quote. That review also shows whether any related wiring or service changes are needed.
