    Can a breaker be used as a daily switch?

    How big was the job to get this installed? Looks like you would have to pull grid power into one side? Is there any concern of using this with generators that are floating neutral (which all portable generators seem to be). reading on the homedepot questions section, someone asked if the switch...
