Electrical wiring / well pump question.

[th3w01f]

I think I have a plan but I want to make sure this is going to work before I order it.

Here are the detail on the well pump -

2HP
Externally regulated gen requirement 7.5Kw
Internally regulated gen requirement 4
240
13.5 max service amps

Right now it is connected off of a double pole 40A breaker.

I'm hoping this will work as a transfer switch - I'll have an electrician install it but I want to make sure I have the right part on hand when I set up the install.

I've also realized that a 7.5KW generator isn't going to be cheap. I hadn't expected them to be as expensive as they are.

I guess I should add that I've been looking at Honda generators which is where the sticker shock came from. Who else makes high quality generators that can be depended on?
