Well, sometimes you pretty much know how but you prefer to see it spelled
out and drawn out ;-)

At any rate, do you know anywhere which shows the procedure to hook up a
generator feed IN to the fuse box, such that I can disconnect via the main,
from the local utility?

It really doesn't seem that complicated. It's just the kind of thing you
just don't want to get WRONG ... LOL

Anyone know of any good guides showing how to hook up a fuse box to

generator? I want to hook up a 4-wire, 220v 30A connection straight
into
the box to power the whole home (obviously not everything in it, just
what I
choose to turn on).

There should be some websites or documents out there which show what to
do.
I know much of what needs to be done, I just need to know the specifics.

Even I, a one-time part-time house builder who has personally run many
new circuits in my house, am not so stupid as to attempt this myself.
Some things you don't f__k with if you have to ask for directions.
