Peace of mind, with the flip of a switch
Finally, connecting a home generator is as easy as using a plug and flipping a switch.
There are no sky-high installation bills. No complicated hook-ups. No endless waits for electricians. And no fumbling with connections for different appliances.
It’s safe. It’s convenient. It’s easy. It’s an innovative energy solution from Black Hills Energy called GenerLink. You need electricity now like never before. Whether for appliances, home computers, faxes or other electronic devices, you want the assurance of being plugged in all the time – especially when emergencies strike.
GenerLink is an innovative and proven device that allows you to easily connect a small generator to your home during power emergencies. The device is a small collar that is inserted between your home’s electric meter and meter socket.
GenerLink gives you the perfect solution to your emergency power needs —safely, quickly and inexpensively. With GenerLink, you don’t just have emergency power: you have total peace of mind.
Easy to install
It couldn’t be simpler. Unlike traditional installation methods that can take an electrician several hours to complete, our technician attaches GenerLink, and you can use it in less than an hour. Your household meter plugs into GenerLink, and a cord connects it to your generator. Just plug it in and, you’re in business.
Easy to use
Before you connect and start your home generator, you simply switch the breakers on your home’s circuit panel to match the appliances you choose. Traditional generator connections limit a home owner’s ability to change applications. With your GenerLink, using different appliances at different times is as easy as flipping a switch.
