Wait what even would you use that for??

And at what time of the year do people just suddenly say "huh I wish my cord was gay"??

Some people have whole house generators for when their power goes out for extended periods of time. The simplest/ bad way to connect the generator to the house is a male to male connector to the breaker box.

Yes but NO!

If you have a generator you should have several security installions in place and at that point hard wired everything.

You need at least a switch that disconnects the system power and then enables the generator amd vise versa
