Transfer switches are the only recognized safe alternative for connecting an electrical load to the generator for an entire house or business. Putting an industrial generator into the system without any kind of switch limiting its use could prove to be disastrous to the generator itself and to everything that is powered by it. Electricity could run rampant with surges and create a large number of disastrous results.
