I am wiring upwards a Generac 20 KW. The 4th one in the final period. Each of all of them has experienced a long go to the ATS and much of it is actually outside of the household. The works have now been about 100 feet lengthy with lots of changes in direction. Conduit and multiple JB's is too much work therefore I have-been run no. 1 Aluminim SER when it comes to power and changing over to copper in a JB with Carflex and no. 3 copper the last connection.
The regulation wiring is made from three low voltage (12 volts) wires and three line voltage cable for current feeling associated with typical and creator power. Minimal proportions cable are #18. I have been working 18-3 sunlight/weather resistant for all the low-voltage and 14-3 UF when it comes down to range current. You will find puerto-ricandate run these cables to a WP JB and flipped up to 1/2" with THHN and carflex the past few foot the expense of the UF and working a seperate 18-3 appears like most services and cost than it must be.
In the event that runs happened to be much quicker I would manage conduit for everything. The changeover from AL to CU would be eradicated and I could operate the control cable in one single conduit (6 # 18 thhn in 1/2 inch). I am in search of suggestions on how-to blend the controls wiring into one cable. As much as I know i cannot pick 18-6 UF cable. Could there be such a thing i am lacking?
