I am installing a backup generator. I know you have to have 3 feet of

Do I need 3 feet from the side of the generator where it’s disconnect
switch is and then another 3 feet to the transfer switch that will be
mounted on an H frame on that same side? So 6 feet total?
Code is minimum 4' for up to 600V. Comfort is more.
36" from exposed live parts on one side of the working space and the
opposing face is non conductive or insulated
42" if the other side of the working space is grounded (includes
concrete, brick, and tile)
48" if both sides can have exposed lived parts.
