Question A330 - EMergency generator reset

Here is a scenario: you are getting a lightning strike. Both GEN come OFF line and the EMERGENCY GEN kicks in. While both engines are still running and the RAT is not extended anyone would know how to reset these EMERGENCY GEN?

thanks

ps don't tell me SOP's forbids it--> I'm a tester

acheo; interesting scenario, I might try it next time I'm in the lurching cave...

fantom; first lighting strike I had on the A330 hit the windscreen and left via the aileron with some minor damage. It also fried the #1 window heat computer so that visibility was lost on descent and so the FO landed it. The strike also caused the cabin signs and chimes to cycle, indicating to the cabin crew it was safe to work after takeoff - they did bitch a bit in the ensuing bumps. The other 'bus lightning strikes have been non - evets [so far].
