I need to hook up a 7200 watt portable generator to a house meter base to 
provide temporary power, there is currently no electrical service to this 
house. What is the best way to do this? Just clip the leads from the 240 
volt generator to the lugs on the bottom side of the meter base? Anything I 
need to know to make sure I do this without damaging anything.
