04Follow-up questions
What to have ready for the survey.
Clear, current information helps reduce guesswork. Capture only what can be reached safely, and never remove panel covers or enter restricted areas just to take a photo.
02 / PRIORITIES
What needs backup power
List the comfort systems, refrigeration, pumps, medical equipment, communications, business operations, and other loads that matter during an outage.
03 / SERVICE
Meter & panel photos
Take clear wide and closer views of the utility meter and the closed electrical-panel area, including readable labels that are safely visible without opening equipment.
04 / LOCATION
Proposed generator area
Show the preferred outdoor location and surrounding walls, windows, doors, vents, grade, drainage, access, and nearby equipment.
05 / ROUTE
Connection path
Capture wide views between the proposed generator location, service equipment, and available fuel area so routing questions can be identified.
06 / EXISTING SYSTEM
Generator details, if present
For an existing system, include the generator, controller display, transfer equipment, model and serial labels, fuel arrangement, and the reason for the survey.
Good photos answer the first round of questions.
The most useful survey photos show both context and detail. They help the team see relationships between equipment and spot the questions that need clarification before a generator plan moves forward.
Start with a wide viewShow the full wall, yard, equipment area, and nearby conditions before moving closer to a label or connection point.
Add readable detailPhotograph safely accessible labels, model information, controller messages, and equipment faces in good light without removing covers.
Show the path between systemsInclude overlapping views that connect the meter, panel, proposed generator location, fuel area, and access route.
From survey request to a clearer next step.
Ask for survey instructions
Email Collaborative Generators with the property address, project type, contact information, and a short description of the generator goal.
Gather details & photos
Follow the requested checklist and send current information and safely captured images of the relevant property and equipment areas.
Identify questions
The team reviews the submitted information, notes missing details, and determines whether the remote material is sufficient for the next planning step.
Set the next action
Clarify the proposed direction, any remaining assumptions, and whether load calculations, records, or an in-person site visit are still required.
