Generator powered installation within a house with mains supply?

Daniel Vincent Hale

I have been asked to advise on if it is possible to use a generator to power a small temporary installation within a building with mains supply. The temporary installation would be isolated from the mains supply via use of safe distance and physical barriers. There would be no possibility of equipment being plugged into both power supplies. Does anyone have any advice on this?

    Begs the question - why not use the mains supply for the temporary installation?.

    usually when the local supply is going to be off for a bit, perhaps being moved during building work, or inadequate capacity. He has not said which.
