TRANSFER TO STANDBY
12 VDC is delivered to the transfer relay via Wire 15B and back to the circuit board via Wire 23. However, circuit
board action holds the Wire 23 circuit open and the transfer relay remains de-energized. On generator startup, an
“engine warm-up timer” on the generator circuit board starts timing. When that timer has timed out, circuit board
action completes the Wire 23 circuit to ground. The transfer relay then energizes, its normally open contacts
close, and standby source voltage is delivered to the standby closing coil via Wires E1 and E2, the transfer relay
(TR1) contacts, limit switch (SW3), Wire “B”, and a bridge rectifier. The standby closing coil energizes and the
main contacts actuate to their “Standby” side.
