I don't know where I left off... but I got the NorthStar 4000 watt generator head installed and the whole assembly shoved back in.
I did have to move over the big main round connector and still have yet to remount the contactor.
Complications in my case have been needing to rebuild the pigtail for the generator head since I lost mine... and I am missing the nuts for the output terminals without an easy replacement..
Here are the wires coming from the generator head, with their crappy ferules installed. I was surprised that the wire coming from the head was 14 AWG given that the generator might handle 33 amps. But I guess if all is going well, that load will be split over each winding so 16.5 amps each:
These will run to this terminal strip installed on the back wall of the enclosure so I can easily rewire for 120/240 operation.
