If this generator is used to power electrical load
circuits normally powered by a utility power
source, it is required by code to install a trans-
fer switch. The transfer switch must effectively
isolate the electrical system from the utility
distribution system when the generator is oper-
ating (NEC 700, 701 & 702). Failure to isolate an
electrical system by such means will result in
damage to the generator and also may result in
injury or death to utility power workers due to
backfeed of electrical energy.
