Danny, 20 KW is adequate to run many typical homes subject of course to actual loads (fridges, freezers, heat plants etc) of which I have no idea and its short term surge capacity to allow for compressor/motor starting which can be 3 to 6 times running current. NO a 10 second transfer delay wont keep an AC or fridge running and typically they could have a built in delay circuit to prevent re start under load or short cycling. I trust it will have safe and proper transfer methods but if it was professionally installed Id say it does have. A unit that big is likely configured as a Separate Derived Source and your Transfer Switch switches both Hots PLUS the Neutral and it has a Neutral Ground Bond and connection to a Grounding Electrode. The thing is on smaller gensets where you plug the cord into a receptacle to backfeed the homes panel those gennys should have a Floating Neutral.
