Default Electrical connection for generator (in fuse box) - info, docsor links wanted

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



But your idea is already wrong and not according to any code or standard
practice.

You need an interlocking device (transfer switch) to insure that the
mains and generator can never be connected.
