[QUOTE="Fredkrueger100, post: 3926845, member: 24577"] An electrician hooked in an interlock switch on my breaker. I run the cable to the generator. I had no idea about this. He never said anything and he made me hook it up and run it with a load on it so he could make sure everything was safe. He is a friend of my family too, not just some random electrician. I am pretty sure the Duromax generator I bought is not neutral bonded. I’m pretty sure I saw that on a video I was watching. On another note, I had some stuff to do outside today so I got my generator out and set it on my drip pan. I made sure the oil was full and turned it on. I let it run for about 35 minutes and the oil was still leaking out pretty good. I turned it off an checked the oil level and it was at the bottom of the dipstick. So I doubt very seriously I could use it for very long without it shutting off for low oil. Someone mentioned me just running it even though it leaks but I don’t think it’s smart with how much it’s leaking. [/QUOTE]
