BELLE SAVANNE

Hayes Electrical handles generator interlock switch installation for homes and businesses in Belle Savanne and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, and backed by our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee.
Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Generator interlock installation in Belle Savanne is the budget alternative to a transfer switch: a UL-listed slider on the panel that lets the main breaker and a back-feed breaker run only one at a time, mechanically preventing a back-feed onto the utility line.
We install the Square D QO/Homeline interlock kit, Eaton BR interlock, or Siemens Generator interlock that matches the panel manufacturer. The interlock must be listed for the specific panel model per NEC 702.5 and 110.3(B); we do not field-fabricate interlocks. The back-feed breaker is sized to the generator output (typically 30A for a 7,500W unit, 50A for a 12,500W unit) and a code-compliant inlet box (Reliance PB30 or PB50) is mounted on an exterior wall.
The Lake Charles AHJ requires a permit for any generator interlock install because it is a service modification under NEC 702. We file the permit and schedule the inspection.
Belle Savanne is a Lake Charles neighborhood inside city limits, so electrical permits are issued by the City of Lake Charles Building and Permit Division. We pull the permit and schedule inspections. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.

Hayes Electrical, LLC treat you like family. When I called I had an immediate need and they made me a priority. They were very friendly and professional and communicated well. There was no guessing. Their office staff and the person who answers the phone was on top of it! If you're looking for great professional service then you need to call Hayes Electrical.
Hayes electrical did a great job with my attic wiring issue. They were efficient; figured out the problem, described it to me in laymen's details and the plan to correct it, they cleaned up the area after. The problem was solved. Great personable interaction and will use them again.
I would give Hayes Electrical a 10-Star rating if I could. Superior workmanship and performance and highly skilled technicians for a great customer experience. I highly recommend Hayes Electrical for any and all of your electrical repairs and upgrades.
A group of men and woman that are talented and focused. All licensed. Their customer service is excellent. They were able to upgrade my electrical system for a house built in the 1970s. We removed outdated fluorescent lighting, and these were replaced with current LED canned lighting, expanded the circuit board and repaired the drywall hole that the old fluorescence left in the ceiling. When we asked for options, they gave us multiple options from which we discussed pros and cons of each. Lastly, they are honest, trustworthy, and reliable.
The interlock kit, back-feed breaker, exterior inlet, and labor typically land in a predictable range we will quote on site once we see your panel. It is meaningfully cheaper than a full transfer switch.
It will if the panel brand has a listed interlock kit. Square D QO, Eaton BR/CH, and Siemens panels all have one. Some older or obsolete panels do not, and the better answer there is a panel replacement first.
You can run the circuits whose combined load stays under your generator output. Most homeowners run essentials (fridge, lights, well pump or selected outlets, sometimes the central air) and leave the rest off.
