According to this it only has a 30amp twist lock


That’s surprising, would have thought it came with a 50a

I think this may be what I need


So if you’ve got 30a only, you could just do what I did.

Amazon - General Power Inlet Box

10/3 romex

Interlock switch kit that fits your box.

Double 30a breaker common trip.

You probably have a main breaker box outside like I do. Figure out what breaker box you have and what breakers you can use.

I have the same generator. Has a 30 amp plug and breaker, and will definitely trip trying to start a 90 amp FLA compressor
