That's the word from On- tario Hydro.

Without the double -throw switch, the generator power is stepped up by the transformer and presents a lethal or Maiming current to linemen repairing.wires and poles. _Remember, if you own a standby generator, there's only one way to use it safely . that's with an approved double -throw switch.
