Generator Hook-up Question

notes
10 years ago

Main power to house, then to garage. Garage has a 220 outlet. I've been told that if I run a cord (with the proper wire and plugs) from the generator to the garage 220 outlet, and turn off the main breaker in the house, that the generator will power the house. Realize that devices used will be limited in number. Is this correct - and safe? Thanks.
