Reliance PB30 power inlet box is an outdoor or
watertight electrical inlet for a 30 Amp L14-30
generator cord. It is designed to be located
outdoors where the generator is running to
prevent harmful fumes from a generator to safely
enter inside the house. This Reliance Controls
power inlet box is then safely hardwired to the
transfer switch or panel directly through an
outside wall and eliminates the need for cords
running through doors or windows. Here is how to
install a Reliance PB 30 power inlet box.

Price! Installing a Junction Box and Cord
Connector If your Reliance transfer switch or
panel is provided with a power inlet for cord
connection, it will be necessary to install a
junction box with an attached cord and cord
connector of a configuration that mates with the
power inlet. The cord assembly from the junction

made of a four-conductor cord suitable for 30 Amp
load. The insulation on each of the wires is
colored to identify with the standardized coding
in plugins and receptacles. The wire colors are
usually green, white, and red. You need to
connect one end of the cord to the wires in the
junction box and another end will be connected to
a NEMA type L14-30C connector which will mate
with the power inlet on the transfer switch
face. Now, remove one junction box knockout and
insert a cord grip and the cord. You have to
connect the wires in the junction box as
follows Red and black cord wires to 240-volt
line wires from the power inlet box. White cord
wire to the white neutral wire from the power
inlet box. Green cord wire to junction box ground
screw. Green wire from power inlet box to
junction box ground screw if required.
