SECTION 4: INSTALLATION AND WIRING
4.1 General
Eaton ATSs are factory wired and tested. Installation requires sol-
idly mounting the enclosed unit and connecting the power cables
and the auxiliary sensing circuits. Physical mounting procedures
and power cable connections are covered in this section.
Once a transfer switch is properly installed and wired, it should be
mechanically and electrically checked for proper installation and
operation. The procedures for these initial mechanical and electri-
cal checks are outlined in Section 5 of this manual.
Figure 8. Dimensions and Plan View of a Standard and SE EGS (in.) (100 A).
BE CERTAIN THAT THE DEADFRONT IS PROPERLY INSTALLED
BEFORE THE TRANSFER SWITCH EQUIPMENT IS PUT INTO SER-
VICE. THE DEADFRONT PROVIDES PROTECTION FROM DANGER-
OUS VOLTAGES AT THE LINE AND LOAD TERMINALS WHEN THE
EQUIPMENT IS IN OPERATION. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT
IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

4.2 Mounting Location

Choose a location that offers a flat, rigid mounting surface capa-
ble of supporting the weight of the enclosed ATS equipment (see
Figure 8, 100 A and 100 A SE. Protect the transfer switch at all
times against excessive moisture, dust, dirt, lint, and corrosive
vapors.
