Will running on a generator damage your house? Inverter vs standard vs standby

We take a look at both portable and installed generators and talk about the difference in a regular and an inverter generator and how each can power your house. re-upload due to technical difficulties.

Please note this is a simplification of THD as it relates to generators, this varies greatly depending on the type of load and how linear it is. THD is not simply a change in the frequency of the output. However the decoupling of an inverter and it’s digital nature is better able to handle the variations that can result in harmonics in the system.
