Generac 6852 Transfer Switch installed (to power my house from the Pro Power 240V plug)

Another possibility is that a hot from each panel are connected together.

This makes more sense than hot touching ground. Hot touching ground would cause a breaker to trip.

After almost 2 years of it being installed, I finally am using my Lightning to power my home! The lights went out at 11:40 am EST and they are still out 2 hours and 10 minutes later. I'm going to use my wife's car to go to work soon.

With the transfer switch, will the green Utility light light up when the power comes back on? I told her to go and look at the transfer switch every 30 minutes or so and if the green light is on, she can throw the switch back towards the green light, and the house will be on regular power again. Did I advise her correctly?

Thanks.

I just realized that I left the heated seat running the whole 2.6 hours.
