Edit: I was not expecting a sticky and such an outpouring of support. I've decided to try and find an electrician after much suggestion. Thank you for the love and support. You guys are awesome!
Weird question.
My fusebox is in my basement, where I've pretty much stocked up for Armageddon. I'm wary of letting an electrician into my home to install fuses and switches for my power generator so I'm thinking about doing the install myself.
I was wondering if anyone might be able to assist or provide a step by step with my set up?
Thank you
He could do all of the legwork himself (pour the pad, set the generator, pull lines) and then bring in electrician for the balance. Just offhand tell the guy that your college daughter is moving apartments and you're storing her extra furniture/stuff (under the sheets) until she gets settled. So long as he doesn't see bunches of ammo boxes stashed in plain sight, regular re-used boxes from toilet paper, booze and cereal on the front row wouldn't arouse any suspicion.
