Hard-wire Installation
"Hard-wire" installation to a power inlet box located remotely from the transfer switch (Figure
5) requires additional steps to complete the installation. The wire connections to the wires
from the power inlet box
are made in the wiring
compartment of the
transfer switch. Access
the wiring compartment
by removing the wiring
compartment cover (See
Figure 1). This done by
removing the two screws
located at the bottom of
the front of the transfer
switch. Replace the
cover when installation is
complete.
Watt Meters. Some
Models are supplied with watt meters to measure the generator output. When connecting
the transfer switch to either a power inlet or power inlet box, run the black wire lead going
to the inlet through the hole in the current transformer (the small black doughnut-shaped
device) attached to the left hand meter before connecting it to the power inlet or the wires
from the power inlet box. Run the red wire lead through the hole in the current transformer
attached to the right hand meter before connecting it to the power inlet or the wires from
the power inlet box. No direct connection to the meter is necessary for the meters to
function as describe on the bottom of page 2.
Hard-wire Models. All of these Models have leads in the transfer switch wiring compartment
that need to be connected to the incoming wires from the remote power inlet box. See Watt
Meters above for Models ending with a suffix "C". Connect the wire leads in the transfer
switch to the remote power inlet box using the following color key:
ƒ the black wire to the power inlet X or Y terminal.
ƒ the white wire to the power inlet neutral W terminal.
ƒ the red wire to the power inlet X or Y terminal.
ƒ the green wire to the power inlet ground G terminal.
The incoming power from the generator may be supplied to any of the above models through
the optional power inlet. This optional inlet enables a cord connection directly to the front of
the transfer switch. Simply remove the plastic cover plate with the Reliance name embossed
on it, install the appropriately sized power inlet and wire according to the inlet instructions
using the same color key as used for the remote power inlet box.
Inlet Installation
Suffix A models have a power inlet included. The inlet can be installed on the unit by
removing the wiring compartment cover (described in the proceeding section) and the
power inlet cover plate, installing the inlet with the enclosed screws onto the wiring
compartment cover, and connecting the wire leads to the inlet as described in the
instructions included with the inlet. See Watt Meters above before making the
connections. Make sure the transfer switch is protected from the outdoor elements when
installed outdoors.
