Many many people still use the dryer hookup.
Are generator interlock kits legal in nj.
It s a bit crazy.
I am in the process of completing my interlock and standby generator set up.
An interlock kit may be listed there.
I have done a number of interlock kit installations in new jersey.
The kit isolates the two systems so that power from the generator will never back feed into utility lines and vice versa.
An interlock kit 50 to 150 should also be installed by an electrician who can tell you whether it meets local building codes and whether it will work with your electrical system.
Can t tell you for sure what the codes are but the interlock is easy and safe to do especially with all the help from this site.
I understand that code requires that my 30 amp breaker the 2 and 4 be locked down in the box.
It provides a mechanical interlock which acts as a manual transfer switch so that the utility and generator breakers cannot be turned on at the same time.
Do you research and use common sense.
The interlock kit is simple and ingenious.
Generator installations are to comply with article 702 of the 2008 national electric code.
Nj is not accepting the laboratory test results from one particular testing laboratory.
Permanently installed equipment for the connection of a portable generator must comply with section 702 6 of.
