Electrical work in Sauganash
Sauganash, Chicago is organized around Peterson Avenue, Devon, Cicero, and the forest-preserve edge. The buildings are larger single-family homes on big lots, many with finished basements and multi-car garages. STS Electric sends licensed electricians for service upgrades for heat pumps and chargers, long garage feeders, and whole-house generator transfers.
How this job is scoped
A generator only belongs on a listed interlock or transfer switch that keeps it off the utility lines. Backfeeding a dryer outlet is how a line worker gets hurt. We match the kit to the actual panel, permit it, and leave the inlet and the main labeled.
Storefronts, commons, and the rest of the block
Beyond the houses, the calls are a thin commercial edge on Peterson and Devon, including offices and small medical suites.
Inspection path
City of Chicago permits. Large lots mean the meter, the house panel, and the garage subpanel may be far apart. The load calculation has to include all three.
Before the truck rolls
For a generator, we need the panel brand and a clear path from the meter to where the inlet can sit. A kit bought for a different panel is a common restart.

Shut it off if you see this
