Searching online for this is turning out to be way more detailed than I thought. Is there a specific lock and chain that can’t be cut that anyone can recommend?

Neither. Trying to create a good steal-proof generator setup before hurricane season starts.

The 1,200 prisoners our democrat governor (Honor Code) is releasing due to Rona.

No such thing. They want your crap, they can get it.

A kryptonite bike lock on the gates but If it’s chain link you just cut one little wire and unweave the fence a leather man would do it think prison yard now jails it would work

Are you also looking for one that is oxy acetylene torch proof as well?

If the torch the chain, they can have it.

They’re out there but would probably cost more than what you are trying to protect.

The Rockwell Index is the relative penetrative hardness of steel. The jaws of the most powerful bolt cutters (hydraulic) are rated at a 47 RI. Look for chain and lock hasps that are rated above 47.
The only place you will find chain like this is tire protection chain for the mining industry, notably at Pewag and Rud. These chains are rated between 63 and 67 RI.
For the padlock, look at this one. It has a hasp with a 55 RI.
But note: a good angle grinder with a specialty disk will cut both this lock and chain. It will take over five minutes and make a lot of noise (and sparks at night) but if no one is around, it can be done.
TL/DR? Here.

You can’t win

No such thing a cut proof chain. You will just have to get some that’s to big to get the bolt cutters around.

So simple yet genius. Didn’t think of that.

I don't suppose you can weld can you? Enough time and anything can be stolen. Weld a cage and concrete it in the ground and make something that takes so long to steal that it rules out 95% of thieves.
