Your questions answered
Can I just plug my generator into a power point?
No. WA safety guidance is clear: don't plug a generator into household power points or connect it to the wiring. It can feed electricity into the network. A changeover switch is the safe way to do it.
Who can install a generator changeover switch?
A licensed electrical contractor. For permanently connected generators the switch goes at the main switchboard. OTOLEC holds WA Electrical Contractor Licence EC16326.
