I would think tying both 120v legs together a major BOOM BOOM if that contactor fails while hooked up to the grid. I like your idea of a manual plug and socket you can bypass plug and unplug if your inverter goes out that is the safest way for sure. How is the generator tied into the main system, does it go through the contactor in the back?
