We are adding a generator to a existing 9,000 square foot house. The house currently has a existing 400A combination service meter/main. Obviously the existing service comes into the meter side of this device, and feeds the main attached to it. (see photo).
I am basically just trying to figure out the easiest and most cost effective way to add a automatic transfer switch to this picture. My thoughts were to add the transfer switch on the left, come out of the meter/main combo to feed it, then come back out of the transfer switch, and back into the meter/main combo to re-feed the main. Would this be possible with a piece of equipment that is a assembly in a meter/main situation?
The catalog # for the square D meter/main combo is a QU12L400SL
Thanks Guys
