Residential Generator Safety

The NH State Fire Marshal has published an informational bulletin with guidelines and important information about generator safety during power outages.

Portable Generators

Portable generators should be placed 10 feet from any structure, with the exhaust facing away from the building openings. Deadly exhause fumes can enter the building through any opening resulting in severe injury or death to unsuspecting occupants.

Never place portable generators on or near combustible surfaces such as decks, porches, or tool sheds. Heat generated by the motor, or improper refueling methods can start a fire.

Never run portable generators inside any building, including basement areas and garages. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build up in minutes, injuring occupants with little or no warning.

Never modify or construct any power cord so a generator can be connected to a receptacle, dryer or range outlet.
