[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 522197, member: 23472"] I would suggest a 2nd consumers unit and circuits would be better, human nature means you take the easiest option, so you would have to "run round" isolating things you can not use (You would soon get fed up, or easily miss something.) It would be better to have "standby lights installed, and one or two standby sockets (All powered by your generator) It would be better and more cost effective in the long run, also, if you leave an existing light switched on, when the mains is restored you would instantly know as the light would come on.
