Installation

(cont’d)

Control Connections

Connecting Engine Start may cause Generator to
start. Before connecting, turn Generator OFF.

With the Generator breaker open and the Generator
control switch off, install the Generator start connections.

Note:
N = Utility Position
E = Generator Position

Manual operation is possible for maintenance purposes only.
Manual operation of the switch can be checked before it
is operated electrically.

With all power off, insert a Phillips screwdriver or equivalent
size tool into the manual operator socket and operate
the transfer switch between the Utility and Generator
positions. The transfer switch should operate smoothly
without binding. Return the switch to the Utility position,
remove the screwdriver.

The engine-start terminals are clearly identified by a

label on the microcontroller backplate. In the case of

manual transfer switches, or in other applications not

requiring the microprocessor, clearly marked terminal

blocks are provided in the upper left corner of the control

panel for the engine start control wires.

Terminals for field connections to the A3 Emergency

auxiliary contacts and the A4 Normal auxiliary contacts

are also provided. These terminals are clearly marked

and appear on the side of the power panel. On 400 amp

metal frame units these terminals appear on the bracket

above the operator handle.
