I'm installing a 17kw generator with 200 amp transfer switch and 200 amp service. The layout of the house does not allow me to mount the transfer in a location such that the service conductors can reach the switch. Pulling a new cable is an option, but because of the placement of the meter, this will be a great deal of work requiring the town to turn off the power. I'm considering splicing the service conductors. I haven't found anything in the code the specifically disallows this. My question is, does the NEC allow splicing service conductors? More to the point, can I put a splice box between the meter and the transfer switch?
