Using coach genset to power house?

[Scott]

Hey there Scott, We live on the coast, where hurricanes are a "very
real issue" and as such, power to the house may be out for an extended
period of time. Well, to the whole neighborhood, actually. I have a set
up that an electrician friend of mine "rigged" for us. We plug into the
dryer connection inside the house and it works great. BE VERY CAREFUL
TO PROVIDE SOMETHING THAT PREVENTS BACKFEED INTO THE LINES. NO need to
electrocute a lineman that is just trying to help out! We also have a
6kw genny that we put in the bed of a truck to run neighbors refers,
freezers etc..or anyone that needs some help.
