Check out my step by step guide in this video of me installing a generator interlock kit as well as running all of the conduit and inlet box. I will give you all the details you need to perform this yourself as well as give you some tips and tricks on what to know before having an inspection. Step by step on how to install a generator interlock and inlet box.

The last step in this process which I do not document on the video is to hook up the wires to the breaker in the panel. The hot wires (black and red) attach to the breaker in no specific order. If your grounds (green or bare copper) and neutral (white) are connected to the same bus bar at the back of the panel wall then you can also connect like that. If they are separated into two different bars then just make sure you stick with that configuration for your new install.
