With the storms lately causing downed trees and power outages, many of us use generators to get power until hydro is restored. It is extremely important to have the proper generator connection kit. These kits have an interlock or transfer switch, to isolate your home from the utility grid, when your generator is running. Without this transfer switch, it is not a safe or legal connection and is quite dangerous. An illegal connection can cause power to back feed into the utility grid lines, potentially causing utility workers, who are working hard to get the power restored to get electrocuted. We want to ensure the safety for the workers and yourself. Remember ensure you have the right equipment before connecting generators.
