By breakout box you are referring to one of these transfer switches that connects as a sub-panel right?
No - sorry if that statement was confusing.
A "Break Out Box" as I referenced would be something you would make up from devices purchased from an electrical supply or home store like Lowe's. For example, a 30 amp TT male plug, a length of 10-3 SJ or SJO cord, a 4" square plastic or metal handi-box and two 20 amp duplex outlets that would provide four plug-ins for standard plugs on extension cords. This type of break out box would allow the highest amount of current the generator can provide (25 amps)for starting higher current 120 VAC devices.
