So I want to start by saying I love this show and I frequently learn a lot and this episode still had a lot of good information. However, please for the love of god do not wire any back up systems into your home’s wiring without consulting a licensed electrician. Nevermind, making sure the grounding is all done properly and wiring is good… if you forget to turn off your main breaker you could either kill someone trying to get power up and going again or blow up your panel/start a large fire when power is restored.

This happens very frequently with people just plugging their generators into their home to power refrigerators and lights.

Just really bothered me no warnings about the dangers of wiring this into your homes wiring yourself(even with battery systems) was given. I know electricians are expensive, but please make sure to get help from a professional for electrical work in particular as it is incredibly dangerous.
