Have a small generator on transfer switch, powers well pump & half the house. Fired it up around noon to pump water, cook a meal, & cool down the frig & freezer. Main cause of outages here is trees taking line down in windstorm, or a drunk takes out a pole. Only about 4 or 5 outages in the 12 years I have lived here. Willie
