Re: Are panel Interlocks permitted in Quebec said by fs483:Hmm, didn't know that. I was thinking one of those gennys manufactured by Champion...
Most generators have the neutral and ground bonded at the frame - that's an issue for using one with a panel and interlock setup, rather then a full transfer switch. It's a pretty simple fix - usually just a matter of removing a jumper strap; but it is something to be aware of...
Champion is cheap crap. I've got two with choke and carb issues... I'd suggest throwing a little more money at the problem, and getting a nicer unit. Just my opinion... |

said by whizkid3:said by fs483:I asked an electrician that was doing work at a customer business site and he had never heard of such a thing. He does install generator transfer panels from time to time. He mostly does commercial work. Are you sure he's a real electrician? If he is; he is not very experienced or knowledgeable. Well on an unrelated case, I had an RBQ electrical inspector (Quebec Building Inspector) do an checkup on work done by a master electrician in one our buildings and I asked if those interlock kits were legal or not. He asked me to send him the link and will have a look at it tomorrow when he's back in the office. He will be the definate person able to give me the yea or nay. |
