That's incorrect. To install a generator, which is legal, you are required to have and to use a manual transfer switch. I don't know where the full building code which would require this is, but this describes it in part: > Florida State Generator Law 526.143 > Alternate generated power capacity for motor fuel dispensing facilities > As of June 1, 2007, all retail outlets selling motor fuel must be able to operate its distribution loading racks using an alternate generated power source ... Installation of appropriate wiring, including a transfer switch shall be performed by a certified electrical contractor.
