I have a 50amp gillette generator 9000 watts. My question is if i put a adapter to go from NEMA 14-50P to L14-30R with a nema 30r back feeding through my dryer plug would that be safe running a 50 amp generator.

Yes i know back feedings laws and everything just hypothetically asking if using a 50 amp generator through a 30 amp wire and circuit

To answer your question , yes it is unsafe. This design is dependent on a human to ensure the main breaker is in the off position when powering the panel from the generator. Humans make mistakes. Mistakes like this can kill.
