What size is your generator and is it hardwired into the house or do you use extension cords? I have a small 1,000 watt Honda just to run the fridge and freezer. I drained all the fuel so I hope it starts when I need it
It’s a 5500. We had the electrician do all the work to set us up. The generator is in a small shed & there is a connection there that it plugs into. Electrical service is underground from the shed to the house. At the house, we have a box where you flip a handle to go from ‘online’ to ‘auxiliary’. No extension cords :-)
