Abstract
Devices and methods are described for connecting an alternative energy source (for example, solar, wind, or gas generator power) to power source lines of a utility company to back-feed power to the utility company at a circuit breaker panel. In some implementations, an over current protection device (OCPD) is electrically coupled to the source lines before the source lines are coupled to the main circuit breaker such that it can pass current from the alternative energy source to the source lines without using the busbars of the circuit breaker panel. In some implementations, the OCPD includes slots that are configured to receive the source lines when the OCPD is pushed down over the source lines. The OCPD also includes coupling structures that fit around at least a portion of the source lines, and includes one or more spike taps to electrically couple to the source lines.
