I like to know how to do things the correct way, so both of you were great in letting me know. It helps me understand a lot. I can read code all day long and my eyes roll to the back of my head. We can't all be engineers, etc. Why can't they write things for normal people? lol

So if no inspection, then, this would be ok to leave it in the main panel vs purchasing the kit and refitting? If I put it in the transfer switch, would it be safer for the Schneider since it is closer or is it fine in the panel? I want to do it right but I also don't want to get lost in the...

Love that guy. He is to the point. Have watched many of his videos. Will go see this one. Thanks!

In my system, I am either going to use the Schneider or transfer it to just a generator and disconnect from the Schneider (in case of hurricanes, I want the Schneider powered down along with the batteries. Solar would be disconnected as well)

NO, sorry for the confusion. @wheisenburg had suggested moving the N-G bond out of the main panel and into the transfer switch. I was trying to understand why and came across the video that showed the above configuration. So I screen shot it to be sure this was what he was talking about. My...

I did a little research, and wondered if you were saying to move the grounding lug over to the transfer switch because it would be on the service side of things and not on the load side (the main panel would be load and the transfer switch is before the load) In my instance, the Schneider would...

I understand what you are saying about consistency, and yes, I would like that. I appreciate you pointing it out.

So do this?

You lost me there...I get the black hots on the top of the breaker and the red below it. What do you mean by "Your panel has black on the left input lug, and your red hots on the top of two breakers..." Should I move the red below the blacks like you have yours on the bottom left and right...

Off to find the red tape. Thanks!

My head... My electrician said to wrap in black and technically, black is hot. I can rewrap in red I guess.

I wrapped them in black but did not update the photos. Is black ok? @timselectric Can you chime in please? I had 12-2 Romex cable (white/black wires) and I wrapped the white wires in black so no one confused with it being neutral. Is black ok or should I change to red tape? First photo is the...

So you are saying to take the MAIN ground (green wire) coming from outside out of the panel and put it straight into the transfer switch and then run a separate grounding wire from the transfer switch back to the panel? Take the green screw out of the MAIN panel where it is screwed in now? How...

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!!!!
