#1 I wonder how many local electric codes would permit this.

#2 ^^ It fits into the electrical meter socket, so it has to be installed by the local utility and not your electrician buddy. Kinda pricey though, but indeed pretty simple to use.

They (the local electrical utility) don't have to follow the National Electrical Code as they have their own set of rules and therefor the local codes (or inspectors) aren't applicable.

#3 Country enough and you don't have codes.

#4 Cheaper to install your own transfer switchh.

juat have the switch to switch between the mzin power and genera5or power ( one or the other, not both at the same time. Prevent 'back-flow' power from going back out to the main line and potentially electrocute a power-line repair person.)
