you should never have more than 6 inches of wire in any outlet box, and the insulation needs to be cut up to where it enters the box. You will have heat resistance from the wires in the box and if too many bends in the wire you will loose amperage and maybe resistance.
@@phjohnso, I did one a few months ago and know how hard the wire can be to bend and get in the box. Mine actually loaded the contacts so the plug would not go in. The fix was to install the gen cord end into the power inlet to hold contacts position while bending the wires.
Cool 😎 👍....
Now show us how to connect all this to your main breaker panel 🙂
Thats coming up - stay tuned
@@phjohnso ok 👍 looking forward to it
@@MrGaborseres the install video is up. I did it today. Enjoy

Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to watch my video - god bless!
no problem@@phjohnso
Instead of struggling with solid wire can stranded wire be used? Maybe with Ferrell's crimped on the ends?
yes it can as long as it the right guage of wire.
Hell, I wanted to watch you fight and curse while putting the inlet box cover on with all those long and heavy 6awg wires.
I hope I didn't get too angry while doing it, lol thanks so much for taking a minute to watch

@@johnnyappleseed7798 I super glad you were able to take with it and get it the way you wanted to
what kind of wire from the inlet box to the circuit breaker?
6 gage for 50 amp and 8 gage for 30 amp
@@phjohnso so i need 4 different wires gauge 6?, where did you buy it?, do you have a part #? thanks
* gauged is rated for 40 amps. you should use 10 gauged.@@phjohnso

thanks!@@DirtNastyy
