4.0 out of 5 stars Expensive, limited number of circuits 40248 Generator, September 26, 2009

You must purchase this item with the 40248 7000 watt generator if you plan to wire the generator into your home circuits due to the ground fault interupt built into the generator. It is really just a specialized breaker box. The cost is excessive for what you get and you have to buy it which is a rip off. All the breakers are 15 amp. Most homes these days are wired for 20 amp service. Since you have to rewire all circuits run by the generator permanently to this new breaker box you are de-rating all of these circuits form 20 amp to 15 amp. The number of cicuits in the new box may be less than many people would like to run on the generator.

The quality is good. B+S customer support is "talk to your local dealer" do yourself a favor and avoid a ground fault generator if at all possible, and you won't need this. then you can get an easier prewire. or a cheeper unit. did i say gfci generators are a pita?
