I would go with a 45-55 KW unit. If you do not plan to run the whole house,this will give you more power than you need. You need to fiqure out what you want to run and what the amp load will be. If you need fifty amps for your house. Get a genset that will handle 100 amps. It is better to have more than you need than not enough.Buy a Transfer switch and have it installed according to the local code. A transfer switch will take your unit off line in the event of a power failure. You will not be connected to line power and will not have to worry about switching back when the power comes back on. It will all be done by the switch.You can also set up the switch to test the genset once a week with load or without load. The two best out there at this time are Kohler and Cummins/Onan. I would not mess with Generac. Hard to get worked on,parts are overpriced and very poor support from the factory. I have been a generator tech for forty years. So if you need to talk I am at 903-536-3202.
