At the moment we are looking to install a Reliance TWB2006DR panel (to replace an existing 200A disconnect), which provides an interlock between the 200A utility main and a 60A generator breaker.
The customer is looking to have an L14-30R box installed for their current genny.
So, to "supply" that L14-30 inlet, are we OK to size the wire between the inlet and the breaker to 60A (6 AWG) and to use that 60A breaker? I know that Reliance makes the 200/30A interlock panel but it would be good to have some room for expansion.
Whether this is OK or not (using a 60A breaker and wire for a 30-amp inlet), what is the code rererence?
