This unique kit provides a simple way to add a high capacity power inlet to
many transfer switches or junction boxes. Perfect for pto generators
larger than about 15kW (or any large generator) where a temporary removable
connection is needed. Allows generator cable to quickly plug into switch
enclosure rather than
hard wiring to terminal lugs inside. Easily unplugged using the heavy
duty handle included with plug.
Kit includes 4 pole modular connector housing, 4 conducting tips,
mounting brackets and panel, hinged cover and mating plug for end of generator
cable. Everything is provided with kit except for welding cable, (4)
1/4-20 screws to mount panel, and plug for generator end of cable. This
plug is usually provided with the generator. The tips are designed for
use with extra-flexible welding cable and can be crimped and/or
soldered. Install in switch side wall by rough-cutting a rectangular
hole and drilling four holes for mounting screws to hold panel on outside of
enclosure. Note that if panel is too large to fit on side of switch the
panel can be discarded if the rectangular hole is cut exactly to match the
panel.
Detailed instructions provided that explain assembly and how to
properly make the cross-over cable to connect to the high capacity modular
outlet on most pto generators to this inlet. Available in two sizes: 175
amp max and 350 amp max. Note that actual ampacity depends on wire size
used. Made
in USA
