IV. INSTALLATION
As shipped from the factory, the Deuce Pack 150 package
arrives ready for operation except for interconnecting the
major components.
Please note that one of the ESP-150's is designated as the
Primary and the other is the Auxiliary.
The Auxiliary unit has a two position switch located on its
rear panel. This switch allows it to operate as a standard 150A
unit or as a Auxiliary unit in the 300A system. If used as a
standard unit, make sure you disconnect the power cable
from the Auxiliary to the Primary to prevent a shock hazard.
