Backfeeding is illegal here and the local AHD and the POCO are cracking
down on it. If they catch you backfeeding, they disconnect at the
transformer and will not restore service until an electrical inspection
is passed. Basic electrical inspections are $250 and the utility charges
an additional $75 reconnect fee. I suspect the electrical inspector
could flag any other violations he finds so repair costs could escalate.

Yep, you can et they will take this opportunity to improve the wiring in
your pile and those dodgy cheap DIY repairs will be heavily scruitinized.
