That's why most Emergency generators have the essential loads wired through
a disconnect switch.
You only want what is "Essential" on the emergency buss,
At the hospital I worked at the smallest of three A/C units was on the
emergency buss.
That was enough to keep the OR cool to close any in progress surgeries.

One other point. My Dad wanted to run his central air.
I kept trying to tell him, he's talking about an emergency.
Why not get a window unit A/C and only try and cool 1 room.
This would allow you to be confortable for sleeping etc,
but not wasting a lot of electricity / fuel cooling the
whole house.
