Texxas Power · Commercial Standby Power
Most of the generators we install go on buildings that are already open and running, not under construction. (Building new? See our new construction page.) We plan the install around your lot, landscaping and day-to-day operations, for businesses across Fort Worth, Dallas, Southlake, and the rest of North Texas.

The difference
On new construction, conduit and gas line get run while the walls are still open and no landscaping exists yet. On a building that's already finished, there's no open wall to route anything through, so every foot of conduit and gas line has to work around a parking lot, a loading dock, or whatever's already in the ground.
That's why the site visit comes first: a free, no-obligation look at your electrical panel, your gas supply and meter, and where a generator and pad can realistically go, including what your HOA or landlord will allow. If a smaller system covers your load, we say so; any installer who quotes a number before seeing your property is guessing.
The site survey
A specific, well-defined look at your building, not a drive-by estimate.
We check your panel's capacity and layout to confirm it can support a transfer switch, and flag any upgrades the panel itself would need before a generator goes in.
We confirm what gas supply and meter capacity you actually have on site before sizing anything, so the generator we recommend matches what your utility connection can deliver.
We plan the pad location against the clearances for windows, doors, fresh-air intakes and service access, matched to what's already built on your site rather than a blank-lot assumption.
We scope the permitting path for your specific city before anything is quoted, since requirements and turnaround vary by jurisdiction across the metroplex.
What this means for your business
Permits and inspections
Permitting requirements and turnaround vary considerably across the metroplex, which is why an existing-building install is scoped against your specific city rather than a generic timeline.
Texxas Power pulls the permit and schedules the inspection for your install, so you don't have to deal with the city yourself.
Permitting is usually the step most likely to take longer than the rest of the job, and it varies by city. We don't promise a fixed number of days anywhere: the permit office, your utility's schedule, weather, and equipment delivery set the pace. Installation itself typically runs three to five weeks once equipment arrives.
How it runs
A free, no-obligation visit to look at your panel, your gas supply, and the realistic pad locations on your site, so we size the system honestly instead of guessing.
Our team reviews what the site visit found before anything is filed with the city, so the permit application matches what's actually on your property.
We pull the permit and schedule the inspection. Timing varies by city, your utility's schedule, weather, and equipment delivery, not a fixed number of days.
Pad, gas line, electrical and transfer switch go in. A dig test runs before any trenching starts, so what's already buried is known before anything is cut, and anything outside the original quote gets your written approval before work starts on it.
The generator is registered under the manufacturer's warranty and started up.
We show you how to run the system and what to watch for, then cut power on purpose and confirm it carries your load while you're standing there.
Recent installs
Two real projects on buildings that were already open for business when the crew arrived.
Power outages kept interrupting daily business at this Bridgeport bank branch. Texxas Power installed a 150 kW Kohler standby generator with a buried propane supply on an already-operating site.
An IT and data company in Haltom City needed backup power without shutting the business down. Texxas Power installed a 48 kW Generac liquid-cooled generator with a custom locking enclosure, completed in five days.
Yes. Texxas Power pulls the permit for an existing-building install, and the process is scoped to your specific city rather than treated as a standard timeline, because requirements vary by jurisdiction across the metroplex.
Once equipment arrives on site, installation typically runs three to five weeks. Before that, the permit office, your utility's schedule, weather, and equipment delivery are what set the overall pace, which is why we don't promise a fixed number of days.
Our plan is built around your building staying open, not shutting down for us. The site visit looks at how to route conduit, gas line and pad placement around your existing lot and day-to-day operations, and anything outside the original quote needs your written approval before we touch it.
Yes. That's what the site visit is for: looking at where a generator and pad can realistically go given what already exists, a paved lot, landscaping, a loading dock, or whatever's in the ground, and running a dig test before any trenching so we know what's buried first.
That's exactly what the site visit determines. We assess your panel, gas supply and meter, and the realistic pad locations against the required clearances, including what your HOA or landlord will allow, before anything is quoted.
Yes. Texxas Power pulls the permit and schedules the inspection, so you don't have to deal with the city directly.
