I installed one of these in a video for my Bluetti, works great.
Have you tried using the WAGO connectors instead of wire nuts? They sure simplify the installation.
To be fair, a transfer switch does prevent any back-feeding into the main and is a safer option long term. Old Main breakers can often not break completely allowing some current to flow back through the lines. The down side of a TS is limited circuits. At least this one gives you 10. But the best price found is around $450, without the genny cord
Very informative!
Thx
I have wired a 6 breaker pro tran 2 to mying and it's been running off my bluetti ac200p. Generated around 170.150kwh so far with it
What tool did you use to remove the cover off of the breaker to make it 2 seperate circuits? I tried my hardest to remove mine by hand, it felt like I was gonna break it, I wish I could use my 240 circuit for my stove by the gauge wire to that circuit in the main panel is HUGE compared to the others. It goes to a 40 amp breaker
what about ecoflow wall power switch relays? Have you had a chance to review it?
The smaller box does not run just one side of the box, and with a interlock kit you can choose what yo turn on. So all the statements are not true.
If you install a dual pole breaker as your generator main, it will. land both hots to it. both legs will be energized. just don't turn on any 240 appliances. Could get damaged.
Way cheaper option than trans switch, but not great for long term.
@rtsrts2317 so far I haven't had any issues, I tested my generator to see what it could handle which included turning on my range oven and it worked. But I'll keep an eye on it. Thank you for the info
Why not just get an interlock switch, it’s a lot cheaper and you can do the same thing and have all your breakers available?
He answered that question.
@@Witcherworks
Well, that’s the way I hooked up my house, an interlock switch, and I can turn off anything and everything I want! It’s simple and very clean. Just add two 50 amp breakers for the solar.
But with the pro tran 2 you don't have to have at the panel a shut off for the power. That is why I went with the pro tran 2

I’m off the grid most of the year.
I would love that. Definitely envy you
wait a min, you can do 240 with a single delta pro?
Same question!
@@AlternativePower903 same here, should need the 240 hub, but he switched on the 240 breaker with just 1 DP
yeah, seems like he got a kit intended for the anker f3800 which can do 240, but hooked up an ecoflow that can't. For those that can't you should unbind/replace the 240v breakers & switches.
No. Need the 240 hub and of course, a 2nd dp.
nope, just an example to show the lights working!
Wrong...the inlet box can run both sides of your panel and then you can just turn on what breakers you wish to be powered. That does the same function as the box you just installed, making that transfer switch box not necessary. Thanks for the video though.
