That's legal?
In the US, at least for generators, it is illegal in most jurisdictions to do that. You have to add a transfer switch that disconnects your house from the grid before you supply non-grid power to your house wiring.
That's so people's generators won't energize the lines that the linesmen are trying to fix during a power outage.
- bombcar 3y agoGermany allows 600 watts for now. And linesmen assume all the lines are live and/or cross ground the supposed dead ones. Because the law doesn’t stop idiots.
