Attempting to connect generator
directly to the electrical system of
any building structure. Back feeding electricity through a
building’s electrical system to the
outside utility feed lines could en-
danger repair persons attempting to
restore service.
Attempting to connect to the incoming
utility service could result in electrocu-
tion.
Restoration of electrical service while
the generator is connected to the
incoming utility could result in a fire or
serious damage if an isolator switch is
not installed.
Failure to use a double throw transfer
switch when connecting to a
structure's electrical system can
damage appliances and WILL VOID
the manufacturer's warranty.
Never backfeed electricity through
a structure's electrical system.
To connect to a structure's electri-
cal system in a safe manner,
always have a Double-Throw
Transfer Switch installed by a
qualified electrician and in compli-
ance with local ordinances. (When
installing a Double-Throw Trans-
fer Switch, a minimum of 10
gauge wiring must be used.)
