Circuit breaker 101 they typically go off from 1 of 2 things thermal (overload) or magnetic (short circuit) alot of times they will be rferred to thermalmag breakers, (there are variations but not going too indepth in that) . The textbook definition of grounding is Providing a low impedance...
Hard to tell online. Alot of people make very bad mistakes with grounding and bonding (master electrician turned engineer here). You will need a 1 to 1 transformer to filter. Its size is determined by the output current. To prove the concept you can use a smaller transformer to test (in a pinch...
It depends if there is a switching action on your neutral if you're switching the hots only then do not bond the generator if you are switching the neutral as well then you need to bond the generator.
If you are running with a bond in the system can be at your panel if you're not switching the...
Make sure you have a healthy neutral to ground bond for starters. I've never seen it done with a generator but with motors and drives we used to use a line reactor to filter out weird harmonics.
