Sensible people have backup power, fueled by oil, as a backup.

When the leftists tax oil to death, many more elderly will die, and that is their intention.

To: I want the USA back

We have a barn on our property and the generator would be run out there and the wire feeding the power TO the barn would be used to feed the house power FROM the barn in the event of a power outage.

AFTER the entire house had been disconnected from the power grid by shutting off the main breaker.

We are not going to be responsible for killing a utility worker who is trying to get our power restored by backfeed.

I’ll disagree about oil. The Best fuel for a backup generator (I have a 36 kw unit, so I’m speaking from direct experience) is propane,which doesn’t contain additives and doesn’t break down over long storage the way diesel fuel can.
