Thank you, just what I was looking for. Here in rural Idaho, we seem to have power outages monthly, just so Idaho Power can show you their control. 😊
I elected to backfeed the generator power through a 50 amp breaker. It is prevented from backfeeding to the commercial power by an interlock that prevents the generator breaker from being turned on until commercial power is turned off. The generator is a 13kw dual fuel unit that can power the whole house.
I did the same thing…
Yeah, I did the samething as well. I'm wondering...he must mean it's illegal in Canada, because here in the US everybody has the inlet box with interlock setup.
This was an excellent video. Very informative and you explained it such a manner that was easy to understand, thank you.

I also live in Canada, and was looking into one of these solutions…I was told by an electrician we can’t use these manual transfer switches the way they are explained in their manuals, as the Electrical code in Canada prevents you from using your main panel as a pass through for circuits not terminated in the panel.
Where can I find an MTS to install in Eastern Ontario (east of Ottawa)?

Who sells this transfer switch in Canada?
Didn't want to hear a preaching session. Just wanted to know how to do it.
