I have been reading all the threads about house generator hook ups back feeding and what not. I keep hearing of transfer switch. I have not heard mention the type I have . I bought at the supply house from Square D brand. It was simple to hook up and less then a $100 bucks and I can pick and use any breaker in my house or put the shop on line if need be.All it is is a slide plate that slides and let the main breaker be on or not slide the other way and it allows you to lock out main breaker and turn on breaker for gen set. You can only operate one or the other never both. I have the correct outlet for the nema plug and the bottom of the panel for the super heavy cord going to plug in to the gen set.we are able to run the hole house except oven and dryer. We turn off all breakers in the box and bring on one at a time what we need till all things are on except the oven and dryer. With this set up I can power the shop from the house sub feed going to the shop for an emergency repair or something. Does any body else use this type of set up. My NJ / Pa licensed Electrician friend told me the proper way to hook it all up and picked up all the parts I needed from the supply house I would think what he told meets code. It took me less then 4 hours to do the work although I am very handy I do not do this type of work all the time.
