Installation

We sincerely appreciate your patronage. For this reason,
we have made significant effort to provide for a safe,
streamlined and cost-effective installation. Because each
installation is unique, it is impossible to know of and advise
the trade of all conceivable procedures and methods by
which installation might be achieved. Neither could we know
of possible hazards and/or the results of each method or
procedure. For these reasons,
Only current licensed electrical should attempt system
installations. Installations must strictly comply with all
applicable codes, industry standards and regulations.
Your equipment is supplied with this combined "Installation
and Operator's Manual". This is an important document and
should be retained by the owner after the installation has
been completed.
Every effort has been made to make sure that the information
in this manual is both accurate and current. However, the
manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise
improve the system at any time without prior notice.
Home Owner Responsibilities
To help you make informed choices and communicate
effectively with your installation contractor(s),
Read and understand Owner Orientation before contracting
or starting your equipment installation.
To arrange for proper installation, contact the store at which
you purchased your equipment, your dealer, or your utility
power provider.
The equipment warranty is VOID unless the system is
installed by licensed electrical professionals.

Owner Orientation

The illustrations provided are for typical circumstances and
are meant to familiarize you with the installation options
available with your system.
Local codes, appearance, and distances are the factors that
must be considered when negotiating with an installation
professional. As the distance from the existing electrical
service increases, compensation in wiring materials must
be allowed for. This is necessary to comply with local codes
and overcome electrical voltage drops.
These factors will have a direct effect on the overall price
of your equipment installation.
NOTE: Your installer must check local codes AND obtain
permits before installing the system.
• Read and follow the instructions given in this manual.
• Follow a regular schedule in caring for and using your
equipment, as specified in this manual.

Installing Dealer/Contractor Responsibilities

• Read and observe the safety rules.
• Read and follow the instructions given in this manual.
• The installer may need to provide appropriate rated
contactors based on loads to be controlled.
• Check federal, state and local codes and authority
having jurisdiction, for questions on installation.
• Ensure generator is not overloaded with selected loads.
If you need more information about the transfer switch, call
(800) 743-4115, between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM CT.
Equipment Description
The transfer switch is designed to transfer the selected loads
found in normal residential installations when used with the
supervisory contacts provided. The load is connected either
to utility power (normal) or home standby power (generator).
The transfer switch monitors utility and generator voltages
and will automatically connect to the appropriate source
of power.
These switches make it easy for a licensed electrician to
complete a home standby installation. Service conduit and
conductors can be wired directly from the hour-meter to the
transfer switch. A separate disconnect and associated wiring
are not required when installed per applicable federal, state
and local codes, standards and regulations.
Major components of the transfer switch are a 2 pole utility
disconnect circuit breaker, a 2 pole generator disconnect
circuit breaker, a 2 pole double throw transfer switch, control
circuit board, fused utility terminals and interconnecting
wiring. The control board also has two inputs for current
transformers that sense generator current. These
components are housed in a NEMA 3R enclosure that is
suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
The transfer switch is solenoid-operated from utility or
generator inputs and contain suitable mechanical and
electrical interlock switches to eliminate the possibility of
connecting the utility service to the generator output. It
has ratings capable of switching full utility power into the
residence. In addition, a manual override lever is provided
for the transfer function.
The control board has active circuits sensing utility and
generator voltages. It creates a signal for the generator
start-up, switch transfer and retransfer when utility is
restored. The control board also contains red and green
LED's indicating the power sources available and two
relay operated contacts that provide supervisory control of
external loads.
