Bac in the day, when all the dairy farmers on my books were installing tractor driven generators, SWEB issued guidance as to how they wanted them connected. As well as provision of a secondary earth, in case the reason for the power loss included loss of the DNO earth, they required a double pole isolator switch between the meter and the change over switch, to make doubly sure that backfeed could not occur. The DP isolator was always to be turned off when the change over switch was operated, as was the MCB on the generator.
