Just a note of caution!!
YOU must prevent any 'backfeed' to your utility (POCO) wiring. As you profile describes you as an EE, I will suggest you locate a qualified electrical contractor within your local area to connect your generator.
You also must be mindful of the carbon monoxide exhaust fumes from the gen! Three EMS trips to the local hospital today for people who had gens in open door garages.
Be safe
