Installed ours (hardwired) in the power bay (back wall) and wired into the transfer switch.

Typically, either close to the inlet plug, or the distribution center, or the transfer switch if you have one as you can just remove the main wire and use a short jumper to connect the one side of the Surge protector.In my case there was a bit of space behind the distribution centerClick image for larger version
