Whole house generator installation in Angola and Fort Wayne
When the grid drops, your furnace, well pump and sump keep running. We size, set and wire standby generators for homes, farms and shops across Northeast Indiana.
How we do it
Winter storms and summer lines down are part of life in Steuben, DeKalb and Allen County. A standby generator starts on its own when the power fails and switches your home back when the grid returns, so nobody has to drag a portable unit out in the snow.
Every install starts with what you need to keep on. A home with a well pump, a sump and a gas furnace needs a different unit than a lake house with central air or a farm with a shop and a freezer. Use the generator picker below to list your must-haves, and we will bring the list to your free estimate.
We handle the electrical side: the transfer switch, the load calculation and the panel connections. Most homeowners who ask about standby power also ask whether their panel can take it, so we check that on the same visit and tell you plainly if an electrical panel upgrade has to come first.

Whole House Generators: FAQs
What size generator do I need?
It depends on what has to run during an outage. Tick your must-haves in the generator picker on this page and we will size the unit at your free estimate.
Do I need a panel upgrade for a standby generator?
Sometimes. Older or full panels may need work before a transfer switch goes in. We check your panel on the same visit and tell you before any work starts.
Do you install generators for farms and businesses?
Yes. All Wire Electric installs backup generator systems for homes and businesses, including farm buildings and shops.
