Not powering shed I flip the breakers in the sub panel off when running generator

If it has an igniter instead of a pilot light the igniter might not be getting hot enough to open the gas valve. Might not have enough voltage to the igniter or igniter could be bad I’ve replaced the igniter on my gas oven Here’s what the one on my oven looks like

I’m going to do a test Get generator powering the house Only cut on receptacle circuits Check voltage Would I get a little more voltage swapping the 10 gauge cord to maybe 6 gauge that runs from power inlet box to 30 amp breaker in sub

I remember reading 6 gauge wire was good up to 60 amps Right or wrong?

If the black cord is not the proper wire can you show me a pic of what I should’ve used

Nah it doesn’t have a fuse in the light circuit. Didn’t come with one I just wanted to put one in After further reading instructions they say to use a 5 amp fuse That should protect the 10 amp switch Yes I am using the factory light circuit

I think it’s called brain fade I need to start taking them magnesium pills that my wife takes A friend of mine I play golf with, he’ll get to playing bad and says I need some focus medicine. I tell him nah you’ve had too many 12 oz cans of swing lube!! 😂😂

Got my 18 watt led for the riding mower Couple questions Only putting 1 light on it Not using factory lights Correct me if I’m wrong. 18 watts divided 12 volts is 1.5 amps. I’m putting an inline fuse in the circuit. Should I go with a 2 or 3 amp fuse Next question- obviously each factory...
