[DIY] Generator to fridge connection

 

 Before last Christmas, Menard's ran a sale on gas powered generators.  So I grabbed one.  It stayed in the box until last weekend.

After my power failure was 12 hours old, I finally got off my dead butt and opened the box.  After I poured in all the fluids, I fired it up.

Then I had to pull the fridge away from the wall and get a small child to slip behind the unit and pull out the plug.  Then I fed the fridge with an extension cord.

Told my neighbor that next time, I was going to pull the main breaker and plug the generator into an outside outlet.  Then close the breaker to the outside plug and the fridge.  Of course the outside plug and the fridge would have to be on the same side of the breaker box.

Neighbor said he had been told that is a very bad idea.

Anybody know why?
