Installing an Electrical Panel and a Home Generator Backup or Standby Power System Thanks for your electrical wiring question Roger. This home electrical wiring question came from: Roger, from Aloha, Oregon.

Finally, in either of these configurations should I hook a ground line from the ground lug provided on the front panel of the generator to a ground point near the generator outside the house? It seems I’ve heard conflicting answers to this question.

Would an alternative, if the above scenario is not allowable, be to NOT use the Red wire of the 10/3 line at all and run the Black and White wires from the generator to the generator feed breaker and only use one half of the panel when I am using the generator? Since I will be installing all new circuit breakers I could ensure that the circuits I would want to use in a power-out situation would be on one side of the panel.

Do you think this would likely be OK as far as the county code inspector is concerned? Is there an issue with the Neutral lines? It seems one thread I saw online mentioned that the Neutrals could be a problem? Is there anything else I’m not thinking of that will make this a bad idea?.I definitely don’t want to do something that is not safe for humans or the house or the generator. It seems like this should work but I’m not certain.To monitor the load I am planning on using a set of meters, only one would be needed in this instance that I found at Electric Generators Direct. This way I could use any of the circuits in my panel, excluding the 240vac circuits to the range and the dryer of course, as long as I don’t exceed the power limitations of the generator.Then in the new breaker panel the Black and Red wires would go to the Generator Feed circuit breaker and the white and green wires would go to their respective buss. There I would tie the Black wire from the generator to both the Black AND Red wires of the 10/3 line. What I’d like to do is run the cable from the generator to an outdoor-rated junction box where it would be connected to some 10/3 building wire.

The generator that I could afford is a Champion, Made in China, but the reviews have actually been pretty good and I got it for a good price, 3500 – 4000 watts single-head generator, so it only has a 120 vac output.

The specific question I have is related to the installation of the generator feed circuit.

I have arranged with the local power company to pull the meter and reinstall it once the job is complete and has been inspected by the county, so the major safety aspect of the panel replacement will not be an issue.

Along with this change I would like to add a generator feed option using a 30amp breaker and an interlock kit that is available from Siemens made specifically for my new panel. Further information is available on the Internet at am just about ready to replace my old Federal Pacific breaker panel (a Fire Hazard!) with a new 200amp panel from Siemens. At the end of September 2017, the company had around 377,000 employees worldwide. In fiscal 2017, which ended on September 30, 2017, Siemens generated revenue of €83.0 billion and net income of €6.2 billion. With its publicly listed subsidiary Siemens Healthineers AG, the company is also a leading provider of medical imaging equipment – such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging systems – and a leader in laboratory diagnostics as well as clinical IT.
