What's the switch called that you use to cut a circuit over from street

And do they come in a little 15- or 20-amp version?

I just lost most of today's opportunity to work to a power outage (big
windstorm today), and spent my down-time buying a generator. I can just
toss an extension cord through the window of my office to the generator,
but it'd be nice to connect it to my office plugs instead.



Transfer Switch.


I thought it was a transvestite switch.


You little slut. You thought they named it after you, didn't you?
