An other Generator

[Roland Miller]

I was inspecting a remote cabin with a generator It was using the outdoor generator with a factory-installed main. It is located 35' away and is the cabin's sole source of power. Do I need a main in the panel at the cabin or does the main at the generator satisfy the requirement?

I would imagine that 446.18 & 702.11 are applicable here. The NEC indicates that no additional disconnect is required if located within sight, and is rated as service equipment. The gen set's disconnect should be sufficient.

Thanks Dennis and welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have been around the block a few times:)
