Or if you are unfortunate enough to have your generator on the line
when the mains come back on it can literally blow your generator to
kingdom come or the nearby pole transformer or both. It is way too
much excitement when you cross phase the generator and the main line.
Always always always have a transfer switch between your generator
and the line
