Been to 2 newer construction homes in the past few weeks where in both cases generators have been installed and passed inspection.
In both cases the homes had electric range,dryer, A/C and the one had electric water heater in addition.
Both houses had 11kw units installed by the same company with 200A service rated transfer switches. Neither home had any load shedding modules.
Two different inspectors passed both installs.
Seems as if not much attention is paid to generator installation.
FWIW both inspectors were part time and both installs where in somewhat rural areas.
If the contractor is going to go so far as to get a permit , why not install per code?
