Are you sure that a =A3350 generator is going to be able to supply enoughj
uice to you house??? or are you just thinking of emergency lighting?

What you really want is a Genset (UPS & Generator) your 'normal' power
isr
outed from outside to the ups and from the ups to the house. When the=20
power goes off (outside) the UPS provides enough power until the generatorg
et up to speed.....

Unfortuenately this will cost you a lot more than =A3350... you may need
to=
a
dd a few 0's to the figure! - but that depends on the load (and startup=20
load of any special equipment.

My intention is to get it wired up so that it will automatically start upa
nd provide the house with power in the event of a failure. So a manual=20
starting unit is no use :/
