Whole-Home Standby Power That Rides Out Fort Lauderdale Storm Season
Fort Lauderdale sits right in the path of the worst of hurricane season, and when the grid goes down the outages can stretch for days. A whole-home standby generator keeps the AC, refrigeration, and medical equipment running without anyone dragging a portable unit out of the garage.
Matthew Gulino is a third-generation electrician, and his portfolio goes well beyond routine residential work. It includes electrical work at Pier 66 Marina in Fort Lauderdale, Island Gardens in Miami, and petroleum and hazardous location work built to Class I, Division 1 standards. For a standby generator, that discipline shows up in correct sizing, a clean transfer-switch install, and fuel and wiring runs that pass inspection the first time.
Trophy Electric is based in Boca Raton and covers Fort Lauderdale across Broward County. We take generator installation calls in Victoria Park, Rio Vista, and Las Olas Isles, and out toward Las Olas Boulevard and the New River. Fort Lauderdale mixes historic pre-1970 homes in Victoria Park and Rio Vista with waterfront properties along the Intracoastal, and salt air is hard on older electrical equipment.
A standby generator install is more than setting a unit on a pad. Trophy Electric handles the load calculation to size the generator to the home, the automatic transfer switch so the changeover is hands-free, the fuel connection for natural gas or propane, and the FPL coordination and permit. We install and service Generac, Kohler, and Cummins units, and we spec everything for South Florida heat and salt air.
Every generator job that needs a permit gets one, pulled through the City of Fort Lauderdale or Broward County building department and inspected to National Electric Code. We also work in Wilton Manors, Oakland Park, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, and Plantation nearby. Free estimates, a licensed master electrician on site, and 24/7 emergency service across Broward County.
What We Do in Fort Lauderdale
What a Standby Generator Install Includes
Whole-Home Standby Generator Installation
Fort Lauderdale sits right in the path of the worst of hurricane season, and when the grid goes down the outages can stretch for days. A whole-home standby generator keeps the AC, refrigeration, and medical equipment running without anyone dragging a portable unit out of the garage.
Services include a whole-home load calculation, standby unit sizing and supply (Generac, Kohler, and Cummins), concrete or composite pad placement, automatic transfer switch installation, natural gas or propane fuel connection, FPL coordination, and permit and inspection through the City of Fort Lauderdale or Broward County building department.
Automatic Transfer Switch and Fuel Hookup
On a Fort Lauderdale standby system, the automatic transfer switch is what makes the generator hands-free. It watches the utility feed, starts the generator when the power drops, and carries the home safely until Broward County is back on the grid. Waterfront and canal-front homes near Las Olas and the Intracoastal are common jobs for us.
Services include automatic transfer switch supply and installation, whole-home or essential-circuit configuration, service-entrance tie-in, natural gas or propane line sizing and connection, gas provider coordination, and permitting through the City of Fort Lauderdale or Broward County building department.
Generator Maintenance, Testing, and Repair
A standby generator that is never tested is one you cannot count on. Trophy Electric keeps Fort Lauderdale units maintained and outage-ready with scheduled service, and we repair existing generators across Broward County as well. Waterfront and canal-front homes near Las Olas and the Intracoastal are common jobs for us.
Services include scheduled maintenance and load testing, oil and filter changes, battery testing and replacement, transfer-switch inspection, fault-code diagnosis, and repair of existing Generac, Kohler, Cummins, and other standby units in Fort Lauderdale.
Why Trophy Electric
What Makes Us Different in Fort Lauderdale
We Do Work Most Contractors Won't
Hazardous location electrical certification isn't something most Boca Raton electricians carry. Trophy Electric does — and it's what makes us the call for marina fuel systems, petroleum facilities, and any project where standard electrical licensing isn't enough.
Matthew Learned This Trade Before He Could Drive
As a third-generation electrician, Matthew Gulino grew up in the trade. By the time he founded Trophy Electric, he had already completed international fuel system installations, earned his Florida Master Electrician license, and logged years on high-stakes commercial projects. That background comes with every job we take on.
No Subcontractors, No Surprises
Trophy Electric is a family-owned operation. You'll speak directly with the people doing the work — no call centers, no handoffs to a subcontracted crew. That means clearer communication and direct accountability from start to finish.
Permitted, Inspected, Code Compliant
Every Trophy Electric installation in Boca Raton meets National Electric Code requirements and Palm Beach County jurisdiction standards. We handle permitting ourselves and see every job through final inspection. Code compliance isn't a checkbox for us — it's the baseline.
Available When It's Actually an Emergency
Electrical failures don't follow business hours. Trophy Electric offers 24/7 emergency electrical service throughout Boca Raton and Palm Beach County for commercial, marina, and residential clients who can't afford to wait until Monday morning.
A Track Record Worth Mentioning
Our completed projects include Pier 66 Marina in Fort Lauderdale, Island Gardens in Miami, IGY Yacht Haven Grande, and marina fuel system installations in the Caribbean. We bring that level of experience to every project we take on in Boca Raton, regardless of size.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Electrical Services in Fort Lauderdale
What does whole-home generator installation in Fort Lauderdale actually involve?
It starts with a load calculation on your Fort Lauderdale home, not a guess. From there we size and supply the standby unit, set it on a code-compliant pad, install an automatic transfer switch, connect it to natural gas or propane, coordinate with FPL, and pull the permit. The unit then starts itself and powers the house automatically whenever the grid goes down. Waterfront and canal-front homes near Las Olas and the Intracoastal are common jobs for us.
What size generator does my Fort Lauderdale home need?
It depends on what you want to run. We run a load calculation on your Fort Lauderdale home and then recommend a unit that covers either the essentials or the whole house, including central AC. Oversizing wastes money and undersizing leaves you short, so we size to your actual loads rather than a rule of thumb.
Do you handle the generator permit and inspection in Fort Lauderdale?
Always. Every standby install that needs a permit gets one, pulled through the City of Fort Lauderdale or Broward County building department, and the finished system is inspected to National Electric Code. We also coordinate with FPL and the gas provider where the job requires it.
Should my Fort Lauderdale generator run on natural gas or propane?
Both work, and the right choice depends on what is already at the property. Many Fort Lauderdale homes already have natural gas, which means no tank to refill; others run on propane. We size the fuel line for the generator load either way and connect it as part of the install.
Will a standby generator power my whole Fort Lauderdale house or just the essentials?
Either, depending on the unit and your budget. A larger standby system can run a Fort Lauderdale home in full, including central AC, while a smaller unit covers essentials like the refrigerator, a few outlets, and key circuits. We help you decide during the load calculation.
Do you service and repair generators in Fort Lauderdale, even ones you did not install?
Yes. We maintain and test standby generators across Fort Lauderdale and repair units we did not install, whatever the brand. Regular service is the difference between a generator that starts during an outage and one that does not.
How long does a generator install take in Fort Lauderdale?
Most Fort Lauderdale standby installs take a day or two of on-site work once the permit is in hand and the unit is on site. Timing depends on the fuel connection and any electrical upgrades the home needs first.
