Default Backfeed generator through dryer outlet?

I have to reapeat my previous post since your response seemed unrelated.

The short answer is if the generator has the neutral bonded to the
frame (equipment ground) the transfer equipment will have to switch
the neutral. You can't have 2 bonding jumpers in one system, switching
the neutral isolates one of them.

Look at "separately derived systems" in the NEC art 250
