Grounding the Generator
The home generator must be installed as part of a system that includes a listed transfer switch, with neutral to ground bonding at the transfer switch in accordance with installation instructions. Unless mandated by local code, additional grounding to earth at the generator is not required. Any grounding at generator must use metal piercing lock washers (or equal), UL listed terminals installed per terminal supplier’s instructions, and comply with national electrical codes and local requirements.

Using
*Use National Electric Code for correction factors and wire size calculations.
Generator Power Connection
Using installer supplied minimum 300V, 6 AWG wire, connect generator power output Line 1, Line 2, neutral and ground to the corresponding Line 1, Line 2, neutral and ground in the transfer switch.
Transfer Switch Communication
Using installer supplied #18 AWG twisted pair conductors, no greater than 200 ft in length, connect Tx Rx and Tx Rx GND from the generator terminal block to T/R and GND on the transfer switch control board. When making connections, obey wire type and torque specifications printed on the circuit breaker and neutral/ground connectors.
