I have a transfer switch that switches the neutral (breaks connection with house neutral) on my house.
NEC says it is a separately derived system.
I am using a portable generator and the neutral is bonded to the frame(ground).
My question is why does it need its own grounding rod? Isn't it already using the house ground?
