    I also think that code does not allow a generator hookup without a grid lockout.
    So that it's not possible to turn on the generator connection with the grid still on.

    I'm looking into a gen/alt power hookup myself....

    those things are usually simple as pie and idiot proof >>> if there's ANY chance of someone dealing with powering up your set-up besides you or someone trusted & detail trained - you need that lockout in place - hate to be you if your power set-up BBQs some lineman ....
