286 REX and a HW 30 Surge Protector

[edstep]

Just bought a 2013 286REX. I was thinking of installing a HW30 Surge protector but I cant seem to find a suitable place to place the unit. I checked behind the ckt panel and there is no room. Just wondering if any other owner have had theirs installed or installed them themselves

A mistake that should be a HW50 Surge Protector

I installed mine in the cabinet beneath the TV.

The TV on the 286REX is located in the rear, how did you locate the wires for that

Mine is 6 inches from my transfer box. Shore power to transfer, then thru surge to panel.

any pics of how this is mounted??

I wired mine in between shore plug and the transfer switch, so that if shore power is bad that it won't damage the transfer switch. The generator has its own voltage protection, so I don't worry about getting bad power from the gen.

Can't figure out how to post pics using iPad ...
