Default Interlock locks to be used in lieu of transfer switch

According to Solar Flaire :
It would if the live fed through your house load and back fed the
neutral from the grid.


That's only one wire, and it's grounded anyway. The problem is
more along the lines of if you're using a 240V circuit = you're
backfeeding the grid's connected hot via the house load from the
generator's connected hot. Plus the neutral = you're backfeeding
half of the grid feed.
