(Knockouts provided in side walls of switch with an inlet cover for use when hard-wiring to generator.) Dual watt meters provided for monitoring and balancing generator load. The 3/4 x 18 inch flexible conduit is pre-wired for easy connection to existing residential load center panel. Installs in less than an hour, without pulling the electric meter or installing a sub-panel. Suitable only for circuits protected with up to 20 amp breakers or fuses.
