I'm currently using a generator that supplies 120V split phase (240V with center neutral) to power my entire house after storms, and it works great. However I would like to have the option of using my smaller 120V-only inverter generator instead because it's much better on fuel, however I need 120V split phase to safely power both branches of the house. Are there any safety concerns with creating split phase 120V using a transformer as shown below assuming the transformer is of adequate size? The center tap would be tied to earth through the home breaker panel. It looks good to me but I just wanted to run it by the crowd in case I'm missing a safety concern.
Also does anyone know off hand of a transformer with this configuration that is capable of sustained 3kW minimum?
