I nor anyone else should NEVER pull the breaker on a pole. I pull my main in the house in my main panel before I start the gen. I turn off the breaker to the welder recept. then plug in the gen. to the welding recpt. start the gen. then turn on the welder breaker. That back feeds throught the undwerground cables to the house, where breakers are turned off that are not ness. for what we want. THERE ARE NO CODE INFRACTIONS HERE.
