• Generator Installation
  REI was busy this week installing a 200 kilowatt generator at a Time Warner Cable substation located in Lancaster, OH. This was one of our larger generator installs that also included weeks of preparation, and plenty of planning as far as logistics were concerned. The substation sits atop a steep hill which made it challenging for delivery, but in the end everything went smoothly. With the installation of the larger generator, tens of thousands of TWC customers will rest easy knowing there won't be any outages in their services due to a power outage.

Safety and Security

• Carbon Monoxide Detectors
  Portable Generator – If you’re concerned with the cost of a backup generator, a portable generator is a good option. Portable generators will cost less and only require a few electrical items if your company suffers a power outage. They are also smaller, hence the word portable, and are moved from their storage or garage area to where you need them. Portable generators use gasoline to function, so you should also consider this cost. Since portable generators use gasoline, you will also need carbon monoxide detectors in the building.
