Good point RJ, a do it yourself backfeed jury rig where you manually have to turn the Main OFF and the backfeed breaker on WITH NO AUTOMATIC LOCKOUTS OR SAFETY FEATURES
IS NOTTTTTTTTT how any Utility or local authority or inspectors (IF duly authorized and have jurisdiction that is) nor any of the NEC Seminar teacher/experts teach,,,,,,,,,,, ITS JUST NOT THE PROPER AND SAFEST WAY TO DO IT but sure many lay homeowners use that method no problems AS LONG AS ITS DONE RIGHT
HOWEVER, Sure if the operator switches correctly ??????????? its safe and works fine, I say to each their own methods they get no argument from me go for it, I'm not in charge of their life safety lol...
NOTE this is NOT me speaking, its what I learned form other experts and NEC board members and my education and experience as a Power Distribution Design Engineer and from professional licensed inspectors for much of my lifes career.
Soooooooooo do as one pleases its safe IFFFFFFFFFFFFFF done correctly BUT its NOT what experts,,,,,,,,,, and the NEC,,,,,,,,,,,and Utility Companies,,,,,,,,, and competent professional electricians and electrical engineers would advise
Where life safety is concerned why take chances is my thinking
PS Im also an Attorney but not going to open any can of worms regarding legality
