Can I use a 200 amp transfer switch on a 100 amp service?
I guess what I'm asking is does the 200 amp breaker in the ATS become the main and therefore I would have to run 4/0 AL to a 100 amp panel? Which becomes a sub panel.
Some guys are telling me no, that it is just a switch not actually the main and the service size stays #2 cause both the generator and the panel are 100 amp.
The generator was package bought with the transfer 200 came with 16kw generac.
Please advise.
Thanks, Not Sure
