Interlock Compatibility FAQ
Is a mechanical interlock kit compliant with NEC code?
Yes. Per NEC 702.12, an interlock plate physically prevents both the main breaker and the generator backfeed breaker from being turned on simultaneously, fulfilling code safety requirements.
What wire size is needed for a NEMA 6-50 inlet?
A NEMA 6-50 (50A) inlet requires 6 AWG THHN copper wire in conduit or 6/3 NM-B Romex.
