We had a sub-panel installed with the necessary circuits breakers to engage certain circuits (water pump, refrigerators, sump pumps, TV, etc.) by an electrician. The plug for the electric cable for generator power (not whole house) is in the garage and the sub-panel right next to the main panel in the basement.

Very easy switch over. It is not automatic.

The generator runs just outside the garage when needed. We did have the cable from the generator to the plug made because I wanted to ensure the generator was outside when running.

It was less than a grand to have everything professionally done but that was over 15 years ago.
