Delivery Inspection

After opening the carton, carefully inspect the transfer
switch components for any damage that may have occurred
during shipment.
If loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, have the
person(s) making delivery note all damage on the freight bill
and affix his signature under the consignor's memo of loss
or damage. If loss or damage is noted after delivery, contact
the carrier for claim procedures. Missing or damaged parts
are not warranted.

Mounting Guidelines

The system circuitry is enclosed in a NEMA Type 3R
enclosure suitable for indoor/outdoor use. Guidelines for
mounting the enclosure include:
• Install enclosure on a firm, sturdy supporting structure.
• The enclosure must be installed with minimum
NEMA 3R hardware for conduit connections.
• To prevent switch contact distortion, level and plumb
the enclosure. This can be done by placing washers
between the enclosure and the mounting surface.
• NEVER install the switch where any corrosive
substance might drip onto the enclosure.
• Protect the switch at all times against excessive
moisture, dust, dirt, lint, construction grit and
corrosive vapors.
Typical automatic transfer switch installations are depicted
below. It is best if the transfer switch is mounted near
the utility meter, either inside or outside. Discuss layout
suggestions/ changes with the owner before beginning the
system installation process.
