Thank You! Very good information.

Its like having a fire extinguisher! I have used mine only twice but works great. peace of mind during jnclement weather

Thanks for a simple and easy to understand explanation

That's just a transfer switch you also get a double though disconnect that manual you switch by hand

Got one last December and got to use it about a month ago. Simply and easy to use. I really like mine!

Would this work with a 2000wh solar generator/battery?

Thanks for great presentation .Generators with bonded neutral needs to be modified to floating which is required for generlink. Should there not be a concern or worth mentioning Hazard of using extension cords from generator now when generlink cord is disconnected as connection of cord is providing neutral bonding though house panel I usually mark generator with warning for customers (NEUTRAL Modified to Floating do not use as a seperatly derived system ). I am assuming it does .Thanks for the great video much Appreciated Brian

Very clear and concise. Tons of insight as how it rarely operates. Thank you!

I use the 30 amp surge protected model of the Generlink along with a super quiet Honda EU6500 generator to supply whole house backup power for emergency purposes. I have a medium sized house and find when I have most everything I want powered on, I am typically using about 3500 Watts of the 5500 available. I used this recently for 117 hours when the Derecho storm came through Ottawa and demolished the power grid for over a week (cost of running was 1 litre per hour). I even ran extension cords to various neighbour's homes to power their freezers on top of powering the house. The Generlink works beautifully but it's an expensive option compared to using a simply transfer switch like a 10 unit Reliance transfer switch, or a simpler power box transfer switch. I previously had the Reliance transfer switch (installed it myself) prior to getting the Generlink and found that it wasn't versatile enough with 10 circuits; nor did it allow 240 Volt power to various appliances. I just didn't like having to pick and choose what switches I could use and not use. I wanted the house to run just as if it was on utility power. Up here in Canada, the unit cost me about $2400 installed including taxes, including a major screwing by Ottawa Hydro utility company of $400 to disconnect and reconnect power during installation. By careful use of the power, I can even run both the electric dryer and the electric washing machine but not at the same time (dryer takes 4850 Watts). The AC doesn't even make the generator pause even a bit...almost totally transparent. It's truly as if the utility power is still on. And the gas furnace runs on a 110 circuit so no problem. I start up the generator, warm it up, turn off eco mode so it runs at full speed, then turn on the generator breaker and the Generlink automatically switches to generator power. Then I turn the generator back to eco mode. I don't bother with the individual home breakers as recommended as the surge is not much of anything and won't trip the generator breaker ever I treated it just like another home reno project and I'm totally satisfied with both the Generlink and especially the superb Honda EU6500.

I sure wish my electric company would allow this.

When is the 50 amp coming out?

Good simple and comprehensive guide - thank you

Looks dangerous.

I looked at the GenerLink which is a great idea, however the cost of $650 ($750 with surge protection) was so high. I went with a 50 amp breaker (in my main panel) linked to a generator through an inlet box outside my house. This was much cheaper.

Would I still need to install a transfer switch panel indoors or would it work off the main circuit panel?

Thank you

Question on turning the house breakers off before starting the generator when connected to the Generlink. My understanding is that all breakers are turned off except for the main breaker? That the main breaker stays on at all times? Is this correct?
