I have no knowledge about these injectors. If the internal parts need to be indexed I would think that something needs to lock them into that position. I don’t see what would keep these parts from rotating while in operation?

Not like someone is going to start it up and drive off with it, but here is a keyed option...

My gut tells me you are a good guy! Cheers

Good call! Propane can be hard to get during a big storm/outage.

I plan on connecting my generator through a PB50, if I can find one. Kind of like the toilet paper shortage we recently witnessed I guess. I think anyone who is running a generator is “back feeding” their panel, but I could be wrong about that. No disagreements here about an interlock system...

I will look into this system. Cheers

Yes, I could see how cutting a switch in between the meter and panels would be the ticket! It would involve the utility company to pull the meter to disconnect power to the panels. Doable for sure. Cheers

Yes, the wire would get expensive. It’s about 150’ to the generator. The only disconnects are in the 2-200 amp panels. cheers

I agree, I didn’t think about that. I have direct bury from the house to the shop that rated around 70 amps. This summer I plan on installing conduit and upsizing the wire to feed the shop adequately. It would be easy to throw in another run for the generator. Thinking I could feed the first...

The 2 panels in the house are wired separately from the meter. They were not wired with using a generator in mind. Edit: At least I think they are. The meter is mounted on the house wall, 2-3 feet behind the meter are the 2 panels. Each with a 200 amp main.

The problem I’m having with the interlock is back feeding from a shop. The shop breaker at the house needs to be left on at all times. I understand no interlock is frowned upon. We ran this way at our last place for 20 years. Lost power often, 9 days was the longest. Always took some time to...

Back feeding from a shop to the house. The house has 2 separate 200 amp panels, unfortunately I need both panels lit up to keep the essentials going. Thinking about tying the 2 panels together with a breaker? Cheers

That makes good sense, KISS Cheers

Thanks Zed It was reset in 2012

New guy here. Did some googling to see what I really bought. Searches kept leading me here, tons of info to be had! Haven’t had a chance to put a load on it yet. I plan on back feeding the house from my shop. Looks like it has the fuse mod installed, I don’t think it’s been rest? Not sure...
