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.
A typical automatic transfer switch installation is 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.
