Generator Socket 240v for House

    Is this tricky or dangerous in any way for the customer? Even with a manual switch, assume both generator and mains would have to have a manual switch. Is there much to be done by way of certification? What should I expect to pay to have it done? Any info welcome. I've have talked to a couple of electricians already and they won't do it.

    The fuse box is at the rear of the house and there's space just outside the wall for a generator. Between storm outages and mooted black outs I'd like to install it and have the option of running a 240v generator to power the essentials.
