Can you plug generator directly into this and if so does it come wit h receptacle behind the door on front or do you need to buy & install receptacle?

The Q310A will accept the female end of a generator cable where the male end of that cable can connect to the generator. The Q310C accepts hard wire only which of course the opposite end could have a male end to connect direct to the generator. With my Q310C I connected it hard wired on both ends the other to a Power Inlet box attached outside of the house where I use a 30-Feet 30 Amp L14-30 Generator Power Cord - I keep the generator far away from my house.In summary the Q310C does not come with or accept a receptacle.

No This can not be plugged into . It needs to be wired directly into the panel and then the generator wired into it with additional outlet . This should be done by an electrician . Once it is wired it can be easily used .

It does come with the 30 amp breaker and you can run the incoming power from either side which have the pop-out circle blanks. If your application needed from the back, I suppose you could drill the box, but I wouldn't recommend the top because of the moisture following the wire in. The power cord going out (to the RV, etc.) comes up from the bottom.

Yes you can! Just start it and run your extension cords to what ever you need! what I did was incorporate it into my household electric breaker box. So when the power goes off for any amount of time...I can just plug the generator into the house....don't have to use any extension cords throughout the house. Make sense? No door cracked open for cords etc.

Nothing. You should be able to hook that stuff up directly to the power outlets of the generator.

The three female receptacles on the cord are standard 3 prong straight. I have the same size Champion generator and it works fine!

Straight into the wall... two prongs on the back. The rear picture shown on Amazon shows the prongs, but it's a little confusing because the battery door is shown open - when the door is shut, it's out of the way so the unit can mount directly on an an electoral socket.

I had my propane company hook mine up. I highly recommend you do the same. I have a high pressure line from the tank to the regulator that goes to the house. The generator has its own regulator,so they tied into the high pressure line just before the regulator at the house, and installed a valve that was tamper proof. I then had them install a quick connector to the valve. I bought a 12 ft. high pressure hose for the generator and installed the other half of quick connect to it. It works great! Just so you know....... this kind of hookup will void your warranty.

No, this cable plugs into the front of the generator. Not a typical 110 volt style plug.

I don't believe you will need to do anything . Just make certain the neutral is disconnected from the power company by means of a positive discinnect to avoid back feed . I purchased the transfer switch , tie in receptical etc from Amazon when I got the generator. Lowes sells the same generator for about $100 bucks more. The transfer switch and load enter was by Reliance.

There is a specil 3prong connector to the generator -green, white and red - it is the only connector to use and to solar panel you can cut and splice anything to it. You would have to buy a panel fron them in order to have a connector on it like theirs

There are knockout plugs on the back to bring the power in. You will have to supply the breaker for your main service panel if you don't already have one available. I located the box on the exterior side of my garage in a location that was slightly offset from the main service panel on the inside of the garage and about 2' off the ground. I then ran the romex from the breaker slot down through the bottom of the service panel, down through the wall and then out through a predrilled hole in the exterior wall and in through the back of the box using a knockout hole. Point of clarification....by brother, the licensed electrician, actually did the work. Very clean setup. There are knockout plugs on the back to bring the power in.

There is ground wire attachment point on the front to attach a wire to run to a ground point. It will work without the ground but most generator manufacturers now recommend using an external ground for additional safety.

Your question is confusing since this is intended to be a power source. You can plug a regular plug into the 4 outlets on the generator.

Yes in theory you can and you are thinking how much easier it will be I am sure. The problem is how far away the generator will be. If you do this please get an extremely long extension cord or put two together. I read stories about people using generators too close to the garage door and exhaust getting into the home because they are too close to the house. If you search this device on youtube you will see I made a popular video on how to install this. I am not an electrical expert and managed to do it. On youtube search "Generator to Furnace Transfer Switch" my channel is displayfireworks2008. I would post the video link but they would probably block it.

it has two regular outlets on it that you can plug into....If you want to run a cable from the generator to a regular outlet in hopes of backfeeding, no you can't.

The 30 amp plug/cord that comes with the panel goes from the generator to the to Power Inlet Box (the little box you see in the pic is is the Power Inlet Box) Male end of plug cord to generator Female end to the Power Inlet Box. Very simple panel and easy to hook up. Works great.

My unit came hardwired WITH a plug. I didn't need the plug as I have the unit controlled by a switch above the counter. My electrician cut off the plug and wired the unit in to fit my situation.
