    A:  You could easily mount it over a box that size yes, simply drill the box cover hole pattern into the back wall of this box and mount over the top. It will stick out from the wall of course and you may need a bit extra wire length to reach the back of the connector but should function perfectly.

            A:  I already had an electrician run aluminum wire from the panel to the garage where the power inlet box will be located. Do the lugs on your product accept aluminum wire?

              A:  It is important that your wiring is provided in accordance with any local codes that apply to your area. To ensure that you are able to install the correct wiring, we would recommend working with a certified electrician in your local area. For help locating a certified party closest to you, give us a call at 888-GENERAC (436-3722).

                Good sturdy box with (almost) everything you need
                This socket contains the internal receptacle and flip lid. The only thing you need to add is 4 mounting screws and a single wire nut (and of course the 10/3 cable to take the power top your transfer switch). These items are typically available to anyone doing this type of work so I don't see that as a negative at all. Mounting and installation was easy. Since I was at the limit of my 50' length of cable I mounted the receptacle on the wall after connecting the wire inside the box - giving me more room to work on the connections without having to waste any cable. I then worked back to the transfer switch inside.

                Didn’t realize it was a side mount application, but I made the necessary adjustments and it worked fine. Seems sturdy enough.
