If money is tight like most of us these days. you can save the $2,000 to $5,000 cost of having an electrician set up a transfer switch. You can set up a manual transfer switch yourself. There are several different ways To do it.
You can run the whole house necessary circuits with a $500 generator.
5KW Works nicely.Larger can give more options. Totally depends on your budget and needs.
*Install a 220 volt Outlet under your disconnect, feed from the line side of the disconnect.
*Locate your generator there or have a place ready for it. When the power goes out pull the off tab from disconnect, sacrificing your AC &/or heat. Backfeed from the generator to the 220 volt Outlet. Make sure to cut your service main breaker off so that no feedback goes Back on the power line to the man working on the outage.
*The breaker feeding your AC unit where you installed the extra Outlet will be your
Generator main breaker for generator power.
*To test & see if power has been restored, Turn off your AC(generator main) breaker first then turn the Service main Breaker on.
*Anytime the generator starts running funny and bogging down you can cut off the AC breaker, killing the load on the generator.
*Cut off all your 220 volts Breakers & non necessary circuits. Depending on the size of your generator you can conservatively reset some of the breakers, if you need them.
*You will be able to run your primary circuits for lights, internet, TV & Refrigerator normal.
No running drop cords all over the place.
*Always a good idea to have your appliances and computers on surge protectors just in case. Power surges occur often as power is restored. Generators also can cause power surges when overloaded or Unexpectedly running out of gas.
*If your generator begins running rough or bogging down, Kill the breaker or unplug generator & investigate.
Backup power can run a long time, longer being more conservative.
**Before connecting generator power
**Turn off the main breaker & all the 220 Breakers, stove, dryer, hot water heater… leave these off If possible until power is restored.
**Turn all the breakers off.
** Activate generator power.
** Turn 120Volt breakers on one at a time.(lights & outlets)
It doesn’t really take much power for the Necessities during a blackout. Lights, TV, internet router,& Refrigerator,. a microwave can be used sparingly. depending on the size of your backup power.
A small inverter will run Necessary 120 volt circuits, Using sparingly, Keeping a close eye on the batteries Or charging source.
Using only the necessary circuits and switching them on and off as you need them, Extends time So as not to exhaust your fuel source.
Internet addiction disorder (IAD) also known as problematic internet use or pathological internet use is generally defined as problematic, compulsive use of the internet, that results in significant impairment in an individual's function in various life domains over a prolonged period of time. This and other relationships between digital media use and mental health have been under considerable research, debate and discussion amongst experts in several disciplines, and have generated controversy from the medical, scientific and technological communities. Such disorders can be diagnosed when an individual engages in online activities at the cost of fulfilling daily responsibilities or pursuing other interests, and without regard for the negative consequences.
Excessive Internet use has not been recognised as a disorder by the World Health Organization or the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5); however, the related diagnosis of gaming disorder has been included in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11). Controversy around the diagnosis includes whether the disorder is a separate clinical entity, or a manifestation of underlying psychiatric disorders. Research has approached the question from a variety of viewpoints, with no universally standardised or agreed definitions, leading to difficulties in developing evidence based recommendations
