I've read 250.35 so much I've confused myself.
We have a generator with a built-in main breaker. The unit is located remote from the building.
I understand the relationship concerning the ATS and a SDS vs non-SDS.
In this case I do not know if the ATS switches the neutral so I need to approach both situations.
See if this is correct, please:
(a) If the generator is an SDS, per 250.30 we establish a grounding electrode system at the generator. Since there is no structure this will be a CEE or ground rods and we have a system bonding jumper at the generator breaker and install a equipment ground to structure based on 250.122
(b) If the generator is not an SDS if we bond the neutral at the generator it seems we would be in violation of 250.24(A)(5). Am I correct that per 250.35, in this case since there is a breaker at the generator we would install and equipment grounding conductor from the structure to the generator based on 250.122 (using the generator breaker to size) and we do not neutral bonding ?
