Neutral Switching Transfer Switch

[Capertrj]

Hello all. I know there are threads out there but need some quick help as the Maine coast has the potential for 70+ mph gusts late this week into Saturday morning. Just had a run of 30A backfeed run from garage to basement transfer switch. Previous owner installed a Gen Tran Model 3028 with a 7000W gas generator. The Gen Tran 3028 has 8-10mcircuits, rated up to 7500 watts, utility Input 60A, generator input 30A, rating 12-/240V, single phase 60Hz. The 30A backfeed is now connected to the Gen Tran.

Tested out before the storm and threw the ground fault error. I saw someone previously use the Reliance panel/link X series but they have been temporarily discontinued.

Are there any alternates out there? These floating neutral transfer switches seem hard to find or are outrageously priced.

Thank you and sorry to beat a dead horse but I’m short on time and want to have some lights on for Christmas.

I just bought this one but I haven’t had time to install it yet. It switches the neutral. You have to add a 50 amp breaker to your main panel to feed this but you will be able to remove any breakers that you move to the transfer switch. I was worried that my panel is full but I’ll be moving 8 circuits over so I have plenty of room.
