Bedrooms as much as you need it for your fridge and freezer.  most houses would
require AT LEAST a 10KW to run everything but the AC, about 15KW for that and
the full house.
The transfer switch is installed into the 200a main circuit fuse block as I

is not wired with aluminum...
Anyway, the Txfr switch is usually sold for about $150 here in Houston the last
time I looked which was about 7 yrs ago.  I still have a 5or 7kw on the
backporch which is still in the box!
