Portable generator bonding and grounding is one of the most misunderstood areas of the NEC — especially when it comes to floating neutrals, SDS vs non-SDS systems, and transfer switch connections.
Equipment Used in This Setup:
Generator used:

Manual transfer switch:

Meter used in testing:
Klein Tools CL390 clamp meter — the meter I used to verify floating neutral, check continuity, and demonstrate when the neutral-to-EGC bond occurs. It’s also the meter I trust in the field.

What the NEC Actually Says

In this video, I break down:
• How to identify a floating neutral generator
• When a generator becomes a separately derived system (SDS)
• Why SDS vs non-SDS depends on how the generator is connected
• NEC 702.5 transfer switch requirements
• How objectionable current and parallel paths occur
• When a grounding electrode is — and is NOT — required
• How a floating neutral behaves differently with cord-and-plug loads vs a transfer switch
