Most thermostats have a built in delay to keep the compressors from starting gains a high head pressure. Mine is about three minutes. So when I switch power sources, my sequence is shut down AC, shut down generator, plug in, wait for power protection to kick on, turn AC back on. I feel that provides the most protection for the generator and the transfer switch.
