About Generator Budget
Generator Budget is a free browser-based planning tool for U.S. standby-generator projects. It builds itemized low, typical, and high installed-cost ranges from home size, backup coverage, generator size, fuel, transfer-switch type, site conditions, location, and optional panel work. It also includes sizing, state-comparison, and transfer-switch estimators with downloadable benchmark data. Results are planning estimates, not contractor quotes or engineering advice.
