Bob, you might find it easier just to use a 100 amp main lug panel with two 100 amp breakers. generator input goes to one breaker and your meter power goes to the other. the load going to your regular panel would come off the main lugs. the 100 amp breakers may cost around $47.00 each. only thing to remember when transferring loads is that one breaker must be off before the other one is thrown ON. maybe you could rig up some sort of a mechanical bridge between the two breakers so that if one is thrown the other automatically is open.
