Just male 3 prong dryer plugs for my 220 outlets ..... HD . Has served me well for going on 22 years now. Very safe system, albeit aside from thunderstorm created loss of power etc...not used a lot.. Just have to turn off the main so I don’t zap a lineman trying to repair by power up the line versus down the line per se etc ....

....looking to install a whole house 32kw backup system that is plumbed to our commercial natural gas line. Kohler has some really nice systems, Neighbor has one and it has held up well. He runs it once a week, PM’s it each quarter per his navy genetics....:o)

All good !!

No kidding, do NOT forget to isolate the main. Not only is it a bad citizen and seriously illegal for a good reason not to, but you will probably also kick your generator’s breaker if not also fry it with the load of the whole neighborhood.

I looked into the NG systems, too.
Pricey!

I fed mine to a welder outlet that was installed in the garage near the front door. The generator sat beneath the overhang so as to be protected from precipitation, but still ventilated. Fortunes change and I now live in an apartment. But I’d do that again because it is easy and there is a breaker right there to flip. No plugging a hot plug into a socket.
