Expert Generator Repair in Hartford County, CT

When your generator fails to start, trips a fault code, or runs rough, O'Connell's Electrical Contractors can diagnose and repair it. We serve homeowners and property owners across Hartford County, Tolland County, Windham County, New London County, and Middlesex County. Generator repair covers a wide range of issues: dead or corroded batteries, fuel system faults, control board failures, transfer switch problems, and low-oil shutdowns. Connecticut's inland climate puts real stress on standby generators. Cold winters cause condensation inside enclosures, sap battery power, and make brittle wiring more likely to fail. Nor'easters and high-wind storms regularly knock out power across Hartford County towns, and a generator that won't start during an outage offers no protection at all. If your unit is showing a warning light, failing its weekly self-test, or simply won't turn over, call O'Connell's Electrical Contractors to get it diagnosed and back in working order.

I recently hired O’connell’s electric for a complete service upgrade from 100-amp to 200-amp, along with some additional wiring. From start to finish, the work was executed to the highest professional standard—clean, precise, and fully code-compliant. What truly stood out was Michael’s exceptional approach to the job. He was incredibly polite and courteous, took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process, and answered all of our questions in clear, easy-to-understand terms. The upgrade was completed efficiently and with minimal disruption to our home, and the final result is outstanding. Beyond the technical expertise, he is simply an excellent human being—patient, respectful, and genuinely caring about doing the job right. I felt completely confident and well-informed throughout the entire project. I highly recommend Michael from O’Connell Electric to anyone needing electrical work. Professional, trustworthy, and truly top-tier. We will definitely use their services again and will be referring them to family and friends. Thank you for the outstanding work!

Mike is thorough and competent. He solved electrical issues that I could not. He’s prompt and tidy. His rates are reasonable. He doesn’t try to upsell you.

I requested the job get done on a Thursday Between 9 AM and 5 PM and Mike made it happen. Mike showed Up on time and the new 200 amp service was finished by 3 PM. Mike did a professional job, cleaned up and was very polite. I plan on hiring him again and will refer my friends who need electrical work done to Mike without any hesitation.
