Professional generator installation that keeps your lights on when the grid goes down.
Hear from Our Customers
You know how it goes in Texas. The storm hits, the power goes out, and you’re left wondering how long it’ll be this time. Your food starts warming up in the fridge. The house gets stuffy without the AC. Your business sits idle while you lose money by the hour.
A properly installed standby generator changes all that. When the power cuts out, your generator kicks in automatically within seconds. Your refrigerator keeps running. Your air conditioning stays on. Your business keeps operating like nothing happened.
No more scrambling for flashlights or dragging out extension cords. No more throwing away spoiled food or sweating through hot Texas nights. Just reliable power when you need it most, installed right the first time by electricians who know what we’re doing.
Hooked up Electric has been handling electrical work in the Christoval area for years. We understand the power challenges that come with living in rural Texas, where outages happen more often and last longer than in the big cities.
Our team consists of licensed electricians who know Texas electrical codes inside and out. We’ve installed generators for homeowners, ranchers, and local businesses throughout Tom Green County. When you call, you’re dealing with people who live and work in your community.
We’re not the guys who show up, do the bare minimum, and disappear. We stick around to make sure your system works properly and we’re available when you need service down the road.
The process starts with a site evaluation at your property. We’ll assess your electrical panel, determine the right generator size for your needs, and identify the best location for installation. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all situation – your setup depends on your specific power requirements and property layout.
Next comes the installation itself. We’ll pour a concrete pad, run the electrical connections, and hook up the fuel supply whether that’s natural gas or propane. Everything gets wired through an automatic transfer switch that monitors your main power and switches to generator power when needed.
After installation, we test the entire system to make sure it starts properly and transfers power smoothly. You’ll get a walkthrough of how everything works, plus the manufacturer’s warranty information. The whole process typically takes one to two days depending on the complexity of your setup.

Your generator installation includes everything needed for reliable backup power. That means the generator unit itself, a concrete mounting pad, automatic transfer switch, electrical connections to your main panel, and fuel line installation for gas or propane units.
The automatic transfer switch is the brain of the system. It constantly monitors your main power supply and switches to generator power within seconds of detecting an outage. When utility power returns, it switches back automatically and runs the generator for a few more minutes to cool down properly.
For whole house coverage, we’ll size the system to handle your essential circuits or your entire electrical load, depending on your preference and budget. Larger homes might need 20kW or larger units, while smaller properties often do fine with 10-14kW systems. We’ll calculate your actual power needs rather than guessing.
