    Help 1HP Electric Motor

    peebee is right about load falling. Whatever you do, be mindful that some smart person might just push both buttons at the same time.. interlocking up/down should be considered.

    question of sizing LV switchgear

    Utility company do cater for additional load. I agree with rbulsara that you should rate the switchgear according to the generator and ensure the right trip level in protection... all in an effort to avoid additional spending and inconvenience if the overall load do increase in the future.

    3 wire or 4 wire?

    The response above is short but very direct. Only use 3p/4w when the load is mixed
