In my last house circa 2008 I put in a generator setup and the 200 Amp transfer switch was around $800. In my new house we just moved into, fortunately there was fat wire run to the garage for a welder so I had that outlet changed to a generator input and at the breaker box he moved that breaker to the top of the box and installed an interlock bracket that locks out either the main breaker or the 30 Amp generator breaker, so to enable the generator circuit you'v e got to turn off the main breaker. Simple and so much less expensive than the 200A switch. the electrician said they've been doing it that way for about 8 years. Someone was thinking outside the box.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving day, we did. (nm) - Brent Foy, 2022-11-25, 05:43
