Installation, Start-Up and Owner’s Manual
Generator AC Connection System
A single-phase, three-wire AC connection system is used in
the Standby Generator.The stator assembly consists of a
pair of stationary windings with two leads brought out of
each winding.The junction of leads 22 and 33 forms the
neutral lead.A complete schematic and wiring diagram can
be found on pages 26-27.
NOTE: Neutral is not bonded to ground at generator.
Grounding the Generator
Installer-supplied stranded copper wire is connected to the
disconnect box GND lug and routed through conduit to
the Transfer Switch GND. Continue the wire through
conduit to the main distribution panel ground bus.
Generator Control Circuit
Connection
Control circuit interconnections consist of "240V AC
Utility" leads.These two leads must be routed in conduit.
Control lead functions are briefly described as follows:
Leads deliver utility power to the generator’s circuit
board, optional battery warmer and oil heater and charge
the battery.
Using installer-supplied stranded copper wire, connect
control circuit terminals in the disconnect box to the
Transfer Switch.
Remote LED Plate
The light on the remote LED plate is referred to as the
Diagnostic LED.The LED will stay lit indicating the
generator is in ready mode and will turn on and off in a
series of blinks if certain faults are detected in the Standby
Generator.A mounting plate is supplied so that it can be
installed at a convenient indoor location.The owner will
use it to observe the status of the Standby Generator.
Consult with the owner for a convenient location.
To install the remote LED plate:
Mount installer-supplied electrical box to wall.
Using installer-supplied wire, connect the remote LED
leads to the “Remote Status Light” in disconnect box.
NOTE: LED leads are polarity sensitive.
Attach mounting plate to electrical box.
Refer to the section “Fault Detection System” on page 20
for operation.
