All the trash talk about backfeeding power during an outage I thought I?d share how simple the one is were hooking up for my cousin. He still has a 60A service entrance and that?s still all he needs. We added in a second panel ,it?s a Square D panel with a manual generator lockout. We added a 60A breaker to the old panel and that feeds a 60A on the bottom left of the new one. All the essentials from the old one are being removed and added to the new one. Non essentials ex. dryer are being left on the old one. On the bottom right of the new one is another 60A that will run to a weather proof twist lock female receptical outside to plug the generator into. There?s a steel round wheel between the two bottom ones with a notch in it only allowing one to be turned on at a time and both have to be off to move the notch to the other breaker. I?m not sure what it will end up costing but it looks like a really simple fool proof setup for safety sake.
