I have had a back up generator for the farm since 1980. it is a 25 kw pto unit. It is a winco, all copper wound, so it only needs to be exercized yearly. I have a connection box and switch at the main pole to hook it up. A good farmall M will handle the whole farm, But it makes him snort durning Milking.

I could use that in an emergency too if needed, but it would never run anything in the dairy barn.
