So for you to use your 50Amp hook up, do you have to go down and turn off the main breaker, otherwise it would back feed it illegally, right?
No because it is not a fail safe interlock

And how much do you think it actually costs to make a Generlink? My guess is $50 tops, less if off shored.
I suspect the utility companies are taking advantage here.
Same deal as MikeInEburg, I'm in Washington Co, MD. called Allegany Power today and was advised they had no home generator program. I needed their inspection and power cut-off, a Licensed Electrician to install, their second inspection and if they approve, they turn the power back on. For years I have been using a pigtail out of the 200 amp breaker box. I shut off the main breaker, shut off all breakers, hook up the Gen line and start the generator, then flip the pre-marked breakers I want to activate. This system has worked well for many years, will probably stick with it.
So you are picking back up an argument from half a year ago?:laughing:Legal fees, engineering fees, federal, state and local taxes, payroll, employee holidays and benefits, advertising, retail markup etc. The materials and manufacturing costs are often the lowest expense in a product.

I was amused!.......... I hope that you were not offended.
On generator power at the moment. Heavy wet snow and high wind caused the power to flicker on and off for an hour then go down completely a couple of hours ago..
