Yes this is for a house.

It does need to be automatic. The generator is auto start.

It came to mind that the switch might need to be generator specific. As in, a Cutler Hammer switch will only work with CH generators... Or GE with GE , etc.

He wants the whole panel powered. He currently has a 12 circuit ATS... but like I said wants the whole panel powered.

Sounds to me if this guys wants his whole panel fired up automaticaly, then he needs the Service Rated, 200a ATS... and we might only be able to get it from the generator manufacturer.. if its generator specific.

Does that sound about right?
