GenerLink™

With the increase of home offices, electronic equipment and reliance on electricity, many homeowners have purchased a portable generator for use in their home during power outages. However, they may lack a safe and economical way to connect their generator.

Ensure your portable generator works with the GenerLink™: Compatibility Guide

For members using a generator or wanting to purchase a generator, BARC Electric Cooperative offers GenerLink™, a meter collar device installed on your electric meter that allows you to easily connect a generator to your home during outages. With GenerLink™ you simply plug in the generator and use your household main circuit panel to select the circuits and appliances you want to operate based on the generator capacity. Please Note: GenerLink must be purchased and installed through BARC.

Safe

GenerLink™ provides a safe means for connecting a portable generator to your home, and it automatically disconnects your home from BARC’s power grid when the generator is connected and producing power. It prevents risky do-it-yourself solutions that can be hazardous for you, your family and BARC crews working to restore power.

Simple

Generlink™ is simple to use and easily installed. A BARC employee can connect it in less than 30 minutes. Once connected, you just plug your generator into GenerLink™.

The unit BARC offers is rated for 40 AMPS and has built-in surge protection. Comes with a standard 20 foot cord. Longer cords are available at an additional charge.

Flexible
