I'm looking at the Reliance 30114a Transfer Switch that can supply 4 circuits. I could wire the switch YOU have myself..BUT, but would not feel comfortable going beyond that. (enter An electricion) I would like to have the 4 circuit upgrade so my wife can do it on her own later...and get a couple more circuits.

I swapped my new Honda 2000i back for the 2000i "Companion" last weekend so I'm now committed to that. The "Companion" has ONE 30 Amp 125 Volt twist/lock conector (L5-30), and ONE 20Amp 125 volt (5-20)...Ie: a normal three prong plug that everyone is familiar with. The basic 2000i has TWO 5-20 connectors.

The 30114a ...4 circuit switch is the only one that has a L5-30 connector..and fits the relatively LOW output of the 2000i. NB

Did you ever end up getting the 30114a Transfer Switch?

I think the Honda 2000i Companion would work OK with this Transfer Switch.

You have probably already viewed this video about how to hook it up, but if not then take a look at it and you will see that it is easy to do: http://www.reliancecontrols.com/Stre...Player_T1.aspx

I think if a Monkey watched the video he could do it...Maybe.
