Richdel,
If you are planning to use a generator as a house backup, doesn't it need to have three phase 220V or something? I'm not sure all generators are able to provide 220V that can replace the normal input to a house through a transfer box or that can even be split into two 110V circuits.
At least I have heard some smarter people than I complain about this.
Make sure you get a generator that will do the job you want, otherwise it will just be a waist of money.
Now I'm going to study what allpraisebob did and see if I can follow it.
