I've still don't have power yet, I got lucky and grabbed one of the portables from work and wired it to my panel. half my town Does have power. I've been going crazy with generator services just about around the clock, I'm so fkn tired, you've be surprised on how many people don't take care of there generators home stand by or portables. My company has so many surveys for generator installs. If it wasn't for these generators half my company would be laid off instead we are getting so busy that we may have to hire people. I'm hoping to have power by tomorrow.

well Im on propane standby generator now for the time being.
borrowed from a friend that doesnt need it now since his power came on.
took the meter right off the box and feeding into the house. (isolated from the street of course)
nice to heat up the home and take a real hot shower for a change!
