Home Generator Safety

 
     
 

Before connecting your portable electric generator, call us at 1-800-411-SDGE (7343). State law requires that you notify us if you will be using a generator.

During an outage you may want to use a small generator for electricity. For safety, if you own a generator, never plug it into any electric outlet in your home. This could create electric feedback and cause serious injuries or possibly kill SDG&E crews working to restore your power. Instead, plug appliances directly into the generator.
