I think its cutler hammer that has a special breaker for generator
connection.
either the main breaker can be on OR the generator but not both.
My panel is by ITE Gould. (which I think is compatible with
homeline).
There is a company interlockkit.com, but I do not like their product,
personally.

completely code legal you install this dual pole 240 volt breaker
connect your generator and your good to go.
Someone posted a link recently WAY cheaper than a transfer switch, no
mucking with meter or even permits if your so inclined
Square D makes generator back feed interlock kits for several of their
panels. I installed on in the new QO panel I recently installed.

Pete, your link did not work for me, sorry. If Homeline is a brand of
Square D, I will just call them on the phone.

You are correct, that link does appear to be hosed. This one works:

I don't believe these kits are applicable to panel models other than QO
and Homeline, even if the Homeline breakers follow the standardized 1"
breaker format.
