I have my generator set up where it can hook up to my house.all my 120v circuit breakers are an a sub panel on a 60 amp double pole breaker,feeding from the outdoor panel that has all ov my 240 volt breakers.I have a transfer switch to make the 110 volt panel hot from the gen.
The question I have is,the neutral,& ground wires in this panel are bonded together,& hook into the outdoor panel,then to the ground rod,& the ground cable from regular power.
I was reading about NOT hooking the neutral & ground together at the generator.Is it any problem that the neutral,& ground are bonded together in the panel?It does go to an earth ground.I've used it like this for years,even for 10 days after hurricaine Katrina with out any problems.
Is it safe to keep it like this?
Thanks
