Installation
WARNING
Generator and utility voltage could cause electrical shock or
burn resulting in death or serious injury.
• Installation must be performed by a licensed
professional.
• Disconnect all sources of electricity before installing or
servicing equipment.
• Ground system before applying power.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage - Installing low and high voltage wire in
same conduit could cause electric shock or burns, resulting in
death or serious injury.
• Do not run low and high voltage wire in the same
conduit unless the insulation rating on ALL wiring is
rated for 600 V. See NFPA 70 for more information.
Only current licensed electrical professionalsare
qualified to dosystem installations. Installations must
obeyallrelatedcodes, industry standards and regulations.
The equipment warranty is VOID unless the system is

NOTICEDisconnect all power connections before you install
this equipment. Failure to do so could cause internal damage
to the board during electrical connections.
Incorrect installation can cause damage to the circuit boards
and shorten their life. If you install the circuit boards in live
circuits it will damage the board, which is not included in the
warranty. ALWAYS disconnect ALL sources of power before
you service the generator.
All wiring must be the correct gauge, correctly supported and
protected by conduit. All wiring must be done as specified
by federal, state and local codes, standards and regulations.
Obey the wire type and torque specifications printed on the
terminal blocks, neutral/ground connectors, and installation
instructions. Use the installer supplied 600VAC or greater
copper or aluminum wire of a gauge that complies with the
latest version of the National Electric Code to complete the
connections between utility power, transfer switch, generator,
main distribution panel, and optional remote modules. Apply
the necessary correction factors and wire size calculations.
1. Set the Generator Circuit Breaker to the OFF position.
2. Set the Generator ON/OFF Switch to the OFF position.
3. Remove the 15 Amp fuse from the generator.
4. Disconnect the utility power to the generator and transfer
switch.
Generator Placement
Beforethe generator is installed, speak with the owner and
convey the requirements that follow. They must be satisfied
before the installation is complete.
The owner must be told about twoequally important
safetyconcerns:
• Carbon monoxide poisoning
• Fire
An installer must meet several other general location
guidelines that are contained in this manualbefore the
installation is complete.
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas
that could kill you in minutes. You cannot smell it, see it, or
taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could
still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
• Operate this product ONLY outdoors in an area that will
not accumulate deadly exhaust gas.
• Direct exhaust gas away from any windows, doors,
ventilation intakes, soffit vents, crawl spaces, open
garage doors or other openings that can allow exhaust
gas to enter inside or be drawn into a potentially
occupied building or structure.
• Carbon monoxide detector(s) MUST be installed and
maintained indoors according to the manufacturer’s
instructions/recommendations. Smoke alarms cannot
detect carbon monoxide gas.
• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, weak, or your carbon
monoxide alarm sounds while using this product, get to
fresh air right away. Call emergency services. You may
have carbon monoxide poisoning.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-
enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors
and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can
quickly build up in these spaces and can linger for
hours, even after this product has shut off.
