I would say it isn't me who is mistaken. Backpedaling won't change
that or give you ant credability. You stated this in this very
thread when that very interlock kit was suggested:

"Yep. $150 for a 6x6 inch bit of sheet metal with a couple of holes.

My view is: If the power company wants their linemen protected from
backfeed, they should provide the interlocks. "


If you connect your generator to the power grid you're interfering
with THEIR system without their knowledge or permission.


Agreed. And if it's crucial to them, they might consider protecting their
infrastructure. This same power company puts fences around their substations
and seals on their meters and signs that say "Don't dig here."
