must not be larger than 00 amps. If you have a

25, 50, 200 amp or larger system and want to use

a 00 amp transfer switch, you will not be able to

transfer the complete electrical system. In this case

it will be necessary to install a secondary emergency

distribution panel. NOTE: THE MAXIMUM OUT-

PUT OF THE GENERATOR IS 33 AMPS AT 240

VOLTS. You must also take into consideration when

deciding whether to install an emergency distribution

panel.

CONNECTIONS

NOTICE - CLASS 1 WIRING METHODS ARE TO

BE USED FOR ALL FIELD WIRING CONNEC-

TIONS TO TERMINALS OF A CLASS 2 CIRCUIT.

******************

***** WARNING *****

******************

A main line circuit breaker has been provided inside

the generator housing. During all wiring installation

make sure the breaker is in the off position and the

generator operators switch is in the off position.

Note: This symbol always indicates

ground where used.

GENERATOR CONNECTIONS

Minimum conductor sizes between the generator

and the ATS. Based on wire type and temperature

rating. Wire has been derated for 40° C ambient

temperatures.

To gain acces to the customer connections remove

the end door panel opposite the muffler end. All

connections including AC and DC connections to the

ATS, 20 Volt power connection for battery charger,

and battery installation are made behind this door

panel. After removing the door panel you will need

to remove the cover over the customer connection

box. Remove the two bolts using a 7/6 inch open

end wrench, then remove the panel. See pages 9

and 20 for generator set and pad layout.

Four AC power leads are required between the

generator and the ATS. Two hot leads, a neutral

and a ground lead. You will then need to run both a

neutral and ground lead in addition to the two power

leads all the way back to your disribution panel. The

two power leads from the generator are marked G

and G3.

In addition to the power leads you will also need to

run a three wire 20 volt, 5 amp circuit from your

distribution panel to the generator. This circuit wll be

used to power the battery charger.

The last four wires you will need are the DC control

leads (4 or 6 gauge) for the start circuit in the ATS.

These last two connections will be discussed later in

more detail.

WINCO UL ATS (ASCO 165)

See the ASCO installation manual for additional

details on proper wiring of the Automatic Trans-

fer Switch.

The standby generator terminals in the ATS are

marked “ALTERNATE L2 & L6”. The “hot” leads

G and G3 from the generator are connected to the

terminals L2 & L6.

The normal line power terminals in the ATS are

marked “PREFERRED - L & L5”. The “hot” line

power leads are L and L3 from your normal power

supply are connected to terminals L and L5.

The load terminals in the ATS are marked “LOAD

- L3 & L7”. The leads to the load distribution panel

are connected to terminals L3 & L7.

The neutral leads from all three locations are con-

nected to the isolated terminal lugs on the sidewall

of the cabinet. This terminal block is labeled “NEU-

TRAL” and the terminal lugs are mounted on red

isolation standoffs.

The ground leads from all locations are connected to

the grounded terminal lugs also located on the side

wall. This set of terminals is labeled “GROUND”.

INSTALLATION NOTES

The load current carrying wires (L) and (T) must be

sized to handle the maximum load current without

excessive voltage drop. By code, the wire must be

heavy enough to handle the full current rating of the

main line circuit breaker (or fuse) in the enterance

(or sub-panel) protecting the contactor switch.

All wires should be installed in rigid or flexible con-

duit.
