Generac Portable Products Power Transfer System
2
NOTE: The maximum load allowed through each
Load Manager™ switch is 7200 Watts: 30 Amps at
240 Volts or 60 Amps at 120 Volts.
Per National Electric Code, connection of a
generator to any electrical circuit normally
powered by an electric utility must be by means
of approved transfer switch equipment so as to
isolate the electrical circuit from the utility
distribution system when the generator is
operating. Failure to isolate the electrical circuits
by such means may result in injury or death to
utility power workers due to backfeed of
electrical energy.
CAUTION : Each Load Manager™ switch is for
indoor use only. The connection box is a NEMA
type 3R, intended for outdoor use.
NEMA stands for National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association.
GENERATOR
COMPATIBILITY
Only use a generator that is
factory-equipped with a NEMA
Type 14-50R receptacle.
NEVER use a generator equipped
with a 3-prong 240 Volt receptacle
because damage may occur in
connected appliances.
