GenerLink™ is a product that makes connecting a portable generator easy and safe while providing you the flexibility of using a portable generator to operate virtually any appliance in your home. GenerLink™ is a five-inch device that is installed behind your electric meter by Arkansas Valley Electric. When you connect a portable generator to GenerLink™ and start it up, GenerLink™ automatically disconnects your house from the electric utility grid preventing the possibility of back feed, which can damage equipment and harm utility personnel. Because GenerLink™ is designed and rated to connect directly to a standard household electric service of 200 amps or less, all you have to do to operate a critical appliance is flip a breaker on in the household breaker panel once the generator is connected and operating. GenerLink™ eliminates the hassles of running multiple extension cords or hiring an electrician to install an expensive transfer switch and sub-panel that limits the number of appliances you can operate.
Arkansas Valley offers four different models. Two of the four also feature built in surge protection. For more information and pricing, call Arkansas Valley Electric Cooperative at 800-468-2176 and ask to speak with Aaron Mantooth.
