Generators & EV chargers
Generators finaled before the next storm
Single-trade reviews come back in minutes, and finals run from the job site in the myFCC app the moment the install is done. When hurricane season fills your schedule, the county's inspection backlog is not your problem. You still file the permit and NTBO.

FAQ
Generators & EV chargers: FAQs
What Florida Building Code sections apply to a generator install?
Standby generator installs in Florida typically hit three FBC chapters at once. The electrical interconnection and transfer switch fall under FBC-Electrical (referencing the current NEC edition adopted by the state). The unit itself and its combustion-air and exhaust provisions fall under FBC-Mechanical. The LP or natural gas line falls under FBC-Fuel Gas. Freedom Code Compliance verifies all three on the final. Wind-zone anchoring of the concrete pad is checked against the local wind speed map and any engineered anchor detail.
How fast are generator inspection results?
Live video inspections through myFCC Mobile match contractors with a licensed inspector in minutes and return results before the call ends, which can help the crew close out the install before leaving the site. Offline inspections, with GPS-tagged and timestamped photos of the transfer switch, fuel line, and anchored pad, are typically reviewed and returned within minutes during normal business hours.
Can FCC handle the electrical review for my EV charger or generator permit?
Yes. We review EV charger installations, transfer switches, standby generator connections, and battery storage electrical systems. Our plan reviewers understand the specific NEC articles and Florida code amendments that apply to these systems.
Do you offer volume pricing?
Yes. Volume pricing is available for contractors at scale. Talk to sales and tell us how many permits you run a month.
