In this video, we review our setup for when the electricity goes out. During a power outage, we use the GenerLink to quickly, safely, and easily connect our Briggs Elite Series Portable Generator 5500 watt - 8500 watt generator to the electric meter. Safest and Easiest backup power. This prevents back-feeding and is the safest system I've seen. I also show how I mark the circuits that get turned on for generator use. Our house is all electric, so the generator powers our pellet stove, water pump, some room lights, and more.
