Ruined alternator due to overload? Certainly possible. Just considering the responses so far I’d suggest professional vetting and design for this rather unique application as without that there could be unintended issues. Design problems, wiring size, loads, etc.

Why, CA? All I want to do is have load sharing and monitoring on L1 and L2 instead of just L1.
Are you aware that a 15A plug implies it’s one of a number on that circuit? What are on the other plugs drawing current? Any embarrassment asking your friend to turn his house stuff off? 20A is better PROVIDED it’s the only dedicated 20A plug on the circuit.
We are all trying to help, but unintended consequences are possible.
But it’s just what I wouldn’t and do and I was very carefull with all loads when on a 15A plug. My son and I installed a 50A circuit at his house in hot Sacramento and used 100’ of 50A cord to reach the side street. 50A also installed at daughters house.
