Service Code Detection System
The generator may have to run for long periods of time with
no operator present. For that reason, the system is equipped
with sensors that automatically shut down the generator
in the event of potentially damaging conditions, such as
low oil pressure, high temperature, over speed, and other
conditions. Refer to Service Code Detection System in the
operator’s manual for more detailed information.
Utility Circuit Connection
“240V Utility” leads must be routed in conduit. The
“240V Utility” leads deliver power to the generator’s circuit
board and optional water heater. This power also charges
the battery. When power on these leads is lost, the generator
will start.
Using installer-supplied #14 AWG minimum 300 volt
75°C-90°C wire, connect each ten-amp fuse terminal in the
alternator junction box to the two-amp fuse terminals in the
automatic transfer switch.
When making connections, obey wire type and torque
specifications printed on the circuit breaker and neutral/
ground connector.
Ground the generator per applicable codes, standards and
regulations. There are two generator GND lug locations.
The one inside the generator junction box next to the circuit
breaker (B) is the primary lug and should suffice for most
applications. The second generator GND lug is located
on the frame below the generator circuit breaker cover
and should ONLY be used for a ground rod located at the
generator, if required by local codes.
