Electrician quote $3200 for solar and gen plug up

[dahluwalia]

So I have 5500 watt has gen and a fit solar hand cart generator. I called a local electrician out to estamate how to plug my gas gen and solar alternating them . He said it is two hookup because the gas can do 220v and the solar is 120v .over 3k . Is there any tips to save money if I get another estimate ?I mean know what to ask for ? I wasn't ready for 3k + right now

Use the generator to charge the solar cart when the sun is not shining.

Now it is just one hookup and 120 vac.

Hey now, that’s just way too much of a reasonable answer now! It should be more complicated than that!!

Would 1500 be a reasonable price to install a 120as hookup
