[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 3922501, member: 14646"] I'll try to answer a lot of the questions here and thanks for the replies. I've taken the boxes front covers off when this alarm noise first started and didn't notice anything that could look like a speaker or box that would make an alarm sound like it's making. I'll do it again and look closer but if you don't see me post for some time after today then I touched the "wrong" cable/wire and kilt myself or at best picking my sphincter up off the driveway. The sound does sound like a house burgler alarm but I know it's not a neighbors alarm bouncing off my walls as was mentioned a possibility. We do have an alarm but is a Simplysafe and not this sound. WHen i texted the video to the Generac guy he pretty much dismissed this being any relation to the transfer switchers and main panel. I'm going to take all three panels off today and will take some pics and post here for you guys smarter than I to see if you notice anything that could be the culprit. THere is a soffit in the eaves above and will see if there is an opening near the panels to see if somethig is in there. THe reason I'm confident the alarm sound is coming from the panels is that it's such a faint sound that if it were from another electronic device from another part of the wall or garage that I would hear it stronger/louder over in that area. Haven't been out there today but with this heavy wind i'm not sure I'll even hear it very well. Will search some more and post up later this evening. [/QUOTE]
