Correct wiring…..?

[John Frum]

I guess you don't know the answers to my questions, which is fine.
My vision is terrible so the pictures don't help me as much as they would some of the hawk eyes here.
I think you have a "generator panel".
I think its this one.

Please confirm the model # is QO4L100S?

I don't have hawk eyes but I do understand the electrical code but that wiring is backwards. it is customary to use Black for the hot and White for the neutral.

 

[Texas-Mark]

is that a split phase panel?

Yes it appears it is. The neutral (white wire) needs to be moved to the lug on the right side of the neutral bus bar (the one above where you no have the black wire). But then only every other breaker will work This box is wrong for the intended use.

Wait they are backwards now?

 

[Texas-Mark]

No. The white is still in the wrong place. See my post above. The white needs to go on the right side of the neutral bus bar (the one with all of the screws). But this is the wrong type of panel if your inverter is 110vac output. What model inverter are you using?

Rich All in one 3000 watt….. and here is output….. so I have the wrong panel type is what I am understanding..

 

[DeanNelsonrn]

THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR PATIENCE!!!

 

[Texas-Mark]

so I have the wrong panel type is what I am understanding..

The panel you have is for spit phase (220vac) where one leg goes on the left and one on the right. Then every other breaker gets one half of the 220 giving you 110 on each breaker.

If one does not care at all about code, it can still work, but best to get the right panel.

I agree.. I will get a correct panel, I DO care about code because they are for you’re own safety..is my belief.

And thank you so much for you patience… some pretty cool people on this forum

This is the one I’m going to.

 

[Supervstech]

This is the one I’m going to.

You will have the same problem with that box, you need an rv breaker box for all single phase breakers…

 

[Supervstech]

How many watts is that inverter? How much voltage?

Ok, then that feeder needs to be #10 to feed the panel. You can then jump the two lower lugs and feed both legs of the panel.
I meant, what AC voltage output.

Blue Sea Systems Traditional Metal Panel - AC Main + 6 Positions, 5-1/4" W x 7-1/2" H
This panel maybe what you need. I found it on Amazon

Sorry, total newbie….feeder 10? You mean romex 10?……..

120/60hz Like this?!. I know the jumper is short just want to see if this is what you meant

Correct.
If the wiring is #10
I would use a longer jumper, so it doesn’t interfere with installing breakers.
