It comes pre-wired with a pair of wires for each of the 10 breakers in the transfer switch box. The two wires in a circuit breaker are removed. One of the wires from the pair coming from the transfer switch goes into the breaker. The other is spliced. After it is attached I can switch the circuits independently and the power for that circuit comes from the input of my transfer switch. Since I am not going to touch the two 220v circuits they will remain powered by the grid even if I power others from the generator.
I am getting a L14-30 connector to 110v 15 amp cord. The two hots on the 30 amp will be bridged so that the 110 volts will power both sides of the transfer switch.
My generator is only 1600w but I am only planning on powering about 100-150w plus lights, etc during a power outage.
