Reliance controls is a well known brand in the generator industry. This product earns the better award because of it's compact design and light weight.

You can't beat it.

Inlet For Backup Generator For My House.
By Charles C 
IL
Review Posted 08/27/2024 
I had an electrician install this so that I don't have to run cords into my house through a door or window. It's been more than satisfactory. But I wish Reliance would list the maximum wattage rating. I want to upgrade to a more powerful generator between 12,000 and 15,000 watts from my current 9,000 watt one.

This inlet performed well during a test. Have not used it for actual outage yet. I’m confident it will perform well when necessary!

L1430 Power Inlet Box

Review Posted 08/12/2020 
Good price, quick shipping, exactly what was needed. Easy to install and connect. If you have a generator with a matching outlet this is what you need. Good for indoors or outdoors.

Will this PB30 work to connect the L14-30 cord with 8 gauge wire feeding the transfer switch?

Does this product provide a rain tight connection when product is in use? This is a current requirement of the National Electrical Code. It does not look like it fills the in use portion of the code.

I have an All Power APGG6000 generator. The circuit I plan to use is a 30 amp twist plug 3 prong. What power inlet box and transfer switch will work?
Mal G

Is the Reliance Q310C a good choice for my Generac XP7000E. My electrician indicates a need for a 20A 2pole and a 15A 2 pole as well as several single pole breakers. Are the replaceable breakers similar to the Murray that are so available. Is the Reliance PB30 inlet box a good choice?
