• Ensure generator is not overloaded with selected loads.

If you need more information about the transfer switch, call

800-743-4115, between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM CT.

Equipment Description

The transfer switch is designed to transfer selected loads found

in normal residential installations to standby power in the event

of a primary power outage. The load is connected either to utility

power (normal) or standby power (generator). The transfer switch

monitors utility and generator voltages and will automatically

connect loads to the appropriate source of power.

The Symphony™ II Power Management System is highly flexible

and utilizes individual high and low voltage modules that can be

mounted anywhere between the buildings’s main distribution

panel and the managed appliance. Designed to communicate via

the buildings’s existing power wiring, the power demand and

priority sequence of up to 8 appliance loads are relayed back to

the standby generator, effectively preventing generator overload

while expanding power range and performance. The system is

flexible and additional relays can be added as an owner’s power

management needs change over time.

Only a licensed electrician should complete a standby installation.

Service conduit and conductors can be wired directly from the

watt-hour meter to the transfer switch. A separate service entrance

disconnect and associated wiring is not required when installed per

applicable federal, state and local codes, standards andregulations.

Major components of the transfer switch are three, 2-pole

circuit breakers (one for generator disconnect and two for utility

disconnect), two, 2 pole double throw transfer switches, transfer

switch control circuit board, Symphony II power management

system control circuit board, fused utility terminals and

interconnecting wiring. All of these components are housed in a

NEMA3R enclosure that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor

installations.

The transfer switch is solenoid-operated from utility or generator

inputs and contain suitable mechanical and electrical interlock

switches to eliminate the possibility of connecting the utility service

to the generator output. It has ratings capable of switching full

utility power into the residence. In addition, a manual override lever

is provided for the transfer function.

6 BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM

The transfer switch control board has active circuits sensing utility

and generator voltages. It creates a signal for generator start-up,

switch transfer and retransfer when utility is restored. The transfer

switch control board provides status LED’s to indicate the power

source available.

The Symphony™ II power management system control board

contains a test button, a status LED and eight priority load LED’s. It

creates and sends signals to optional remote modules, instructing

them when to add (turn power on) or remove (turn power off) the

managedload.

The Symphony II system power line carrier technology has been

rigorously tested and has proven to be very robust. However,

certain types of devices and appliances in the building generate

‘noise’ on the power line. Such devices may include non-residential

fluorescent ballasts, dimmers, speed controls (lighting and fans),

bathroom equipment, kitchen equipment, power tools, phone

chargers, and power supplies. These types of devices have the

greatest impact on power line communication when located close

to a remote module.

AM broadcast radio, X10, power line carrier (PLC), uninterrupted

power supply (UPS), transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS)

systems, and power filter technology may also cause the Symphony

II system to not operate as intended. They may cause interference

with the Symphony II system during standby power operation.

If it is determined that power line noise is causing a communication

issue with the Symphony II system, the following changes may

remedy the issue.

• Have commercial (non consumer use) fluorescent ballasts

replaced with residential use ballasts.

• Have a EMI/RFI filter installed in series and near the

problematic device.

• Have the remote module rewired to the opposite power line

(Line 1 or Line 2) from that of the problematic device.

• Refer to Troubleshooting section.

The optional 50 Amp remote module is designed for control by the

Symphony II system to add or remove appliance loads connected

to it based on a user-defined priority setting. This remote module

manages 120VAC or 240VAC, single or double pole loads up to

50 amperes. The remote module’s relay state is normally open. Its

components are housed in a NEMA4 enclosure suitable for indoor

and outdoorinstallations.

The optional low voltage remote module is designed for control by

the Symphony II system to add or remove an air conditioner, heat

pump, or low voltage contactor controlled loads based on a user-

defined priority setting. The remote module is housed in a NEMA4

enclosure suitable for indoor and outdoor installations.

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 their

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 transfer switch 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 transfer switch 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 or remote modules 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 on

the next page. Examples of remote module installations are also

shown. It is best if the transfer switch is mounted near the utility

meter, either inside or outside. The remote module(s) can be

located anywhere between the main distribution panel and its

connected load, either inside or outside. The remote module must

be accessible for service. Discuss layout suggestions/ changes with

the owner before beginning the system installation process.

NOTICE Before drilling conduit entry holes, or any other holes,

cover and protect the switch and electronics to prevent dirt and

metal fragments from entering the mechanical and electrical

components. Failure to do so may result in damage or malfunction

of the switch.

NOTICE Use a vacuum to clean any dirt or metal shavings inside

the transfer switch. Do not use a blower or compressed air to clean

the inside of the transfer switch because debris may become lodged

in the electrical and mechanical components causing damage or

malfunction.

System Setup

You must perform the following before operating the system:

• If generator is installed in an area regularly subjected to

temperatures below 40°F (4°C), select a 50 second warm up

time by moving jumper JP2 (C) installed on transfer switch

control board from ‘20’ position to ‘50’position.

• Set the DPSW1 (A) and DPSW2 (B) dipswitches on the

transfer switch control board to match the kW rating of the

standby generator, as described in SettingDipswitches.

Setting Dipswitches

Dipswitches are used to adjust control board operation based

on generator capacity. DPSW1 and DPSW2 switches are set to

correspond to total system kW rating. Dipswitch DPSW1 (A) has

units of 1,000 watts; Dipswitch DPSW2 (B) has units of

10,000 watts.

Set dipswitches with utility and generator power removed from

the transfer switch to ensure proper control system operation.

If dipswitches are set when power is present at transfer switch,

a power reset needs to be performed before the new dipswitch

settings will take effect. Power reset is when all power is removed

from the transfer switch and then reintroduced after 30 seconds.

NOTICE Transfer switch fault message will occur on standby

generator control board if dipswitches are not properly established

as noted above.

To properly establish the dipswitches, make sure that only one

dipswitch is set to “ON” position for DPSW1 and one dipswitch for

DPSW2. For example a 20kW generator, set DPSW2 dipswitch

20 to “ON” position and DPSW1 dipswitch 0 to “ON” position.

20,000 plus 0 equal 20,000 watts.

The “On” position for the dipswitches is the switch number ON

THE TRANSFER SWITCH CONTROL BOARD, not on the switch. For

example, for an 18,000 watt generator, set DPSW2 dipswitch 10 to

“On” position. Set DPSW1 dipswitch 8 to “On” position. 10,000 plus

8000 equals 18,000 watts.

Set only one switch to “On” position

on DPSW1 andDPSW2.

Refer to following chart for proper switch selection(s).

NOTICE

Air density is less at high altitudes, resulting in less

available engine power. Specifically, engine power will decrease 3.5%

for each 1,000 feet (300 meters) above sea level and 1% for each 10°

F (5.6°C) above 77°F (25°C). Generators located in these conditions

must have the transfer switch programmed appropriately for this

power decrease.

NOTICE Use extreme caution when setting dipswitches or

damage to control board will result.

• Use a pencil or small piece of plastic to set the dipswitch.

• NEVER use a screwdriver or any type of metal object to set

dipswitches.

Remote Module Setup

Each remote module features a priority selector (A) that permits

control of load-add or load-shed sequence. Priority number is

identified on clear protective barrier. Diagrams of each module are

shown in Status LED’s, later in this manual. Priority 1 is the highest

priority - devices set to this priority will be the first load(s) added or

last load(s) shed in a load management situation. Priority 8 is the

lowest priority.

NOTICE When setting priorities, use the number on the clear

protective barrier. DO NOT use the number printed on the

control board.

NOTICE When using multiple modules, it is required that separate

priorities (1-8) be used. DO NOT set the same priority level in

multiple modules.

Priority 9 and 10 are lockouts. Remote module(s) set to these

priorities will remain unpowered during any utility poweroutage. An

unlimited amount of remote modules can be assigned to priority

9 or 10.

In consultation with the owner, set each remote module’s priority

selector switch to the desired priority position. Assign a different

priority to each remote module for optimum operation.

Testing the Automatic Transfer Switch

Turn both of the utility service disconnect circuit breakers feeding

the transfer switch contactors to the OFF position. The system’s

automatic sequence described below will initiate. To return to utility

power, turn the utility service disconnect circuit breakers to the

ON position.

Utility Fail

The generator senses when utility voltage is below 70percent of

nominal. Engine start sequence is initiated after 6second time

delay.

Engine Warm-Up

There is a time delay to allow for engine warm-up before transfer.

Use jumper on transfer switch control board to select delay of

20seconds or 50 seconds.

Transfer

Transfer from utility to generator supply occurs after voltage is

above set levels and after the initial warm-up period. The transfer

switch control board LED lights will change from green (utility) to

red (generator) and the Symphony II status light will change blink

status from Blink Blink_Pause_Blink Blink to Blink_Pause_Blink.

Minimum engine run time is 5 minutes after transfer.

Load Management

Five minutes after transfer to generator power, the remote modules

will energize connected load(s) if generator power is available,

starting with the highest priority (1) through the lowest priority (8).

There is a 10 second delay between each sequential activation.

The P1 through P8 LED’s on the Symphony II control board will

illuminate to show loads being added.

Loads connected to remote modules set to priorities 9 and 10

remain off for the duration of a utility power outage.

Utility Pickup

Voltage pickup level is 80 percent of nominal voltage.

Retransfer

Retransfer from generator to utility power is approximately 10

seconds after utility voltage supply is above pickup level and

minimum run time is completed. All remote module(s) will remain

OFF for five minutes after the power transfer.

NOTICE Any time the remote module is turned off, even under

utility power, there is a 5 minute delay in power being restored to

the module.

Engine Cool Down

Engine will run for 60 seconds after retransfer.

Te sting the Symphony™ II Power ManagementSystem

The Symphony II system can be tested under either utility power

or generator power. Only one priority LED and associated remote

module will be powered (ON) at a time during test mode.

• If TEST is not pressed again within 4 minutes AND testing is

being done under utility power, all managed loads will resume

operation under utility power after a five minute delay.

• If TEST is not pressed again within 4 minutes AND testing is

being done under generator power, managed loads will be

added in the priority order set for eachload.

The test procedure in generator mode is as follows:

1. Turn both of the utility service disconnect circuit breakers

feeding the transfer switch contactors to the OFFposition.

2. After transfer to generator power, verify communication LED

is green on each remote module.

3. Press the TEST button (B) on the Symphony II system control

board. The Symphony II system control board priority 1 LED

(C) and load connected to remote module set to priority 1 will

turn ON.

4. Verify signal was received by remote module set to priority

one. Follow the test guidelines for each module:

4a. 50 Amp Module: Relay contacts will be closed. Relay and

communication LED’s will be green. Appliance/load will

have power.

4b. Low Voltage Module (Single or Dual): Verify continuity

across low voltage control wiring contacts (E).

Communication LED will be green. Appliance/load will

have power.

5. Press the TEST button on the Symphony II system control

board. The priority 1 LED and load connected to remote

module set to priority 1 will turn OFF. The priority 2 LED and

load connected to remote module set to priority 2 will turn

ON. Repeat step 4 for each priority number being managed.

5a. 50 Amp Module: If off, relay LED status is off.

Communication LED status is green.

5b. Low Voltage Module (Single or Dual): If off, low voltage

communication LED status is green. Continuity will not be

measured across low voltage contacts.

6. Each subsequent press of the TEST button cycles to the next

lower priority, through priority 8. After priority 8, press TEST

button one time to exit test mode. The system will reset and

be ready to add loads in 5 minutes.

7. To return to utility power, turn the utility disconnect circuit

breakers to the ON position. All managed loads will be

turned off and turn back on after 5 minutes.

Controls

Other than a Manual Override lever, there are no operator controls

because this is an automatic transfer switch. The manual override

is to be used only by licensed professionals. Information on handle

use can be obtained by calling Technical Service at 800-743-4115.

Operation

To select automatic transfer operation, do the following:

1. In the transfer switch, set both utility disconnect circuit

breakers

to ON position.

2. In the transfer switch, set generator disconnect circuit breaker

to ON position.

3. Install 15 Amp fuse in generator’s control panel.

4. Set generator’s circuit breaker to ON position.

5. Set generator’s system switch to AUTO position.

The system will now be in automatic operation mode.

When the generator is providing power to the transfer switch, the

transfer switch control board is constantly monitoring generator

power and communicating with the Symphony II system

control board.

The Symphony II system will control up to 8 priorities, with priority

9 and 10 as lockouts. When the total generator load meets a preset

value, the Symphony II system control board will start removing

loads, starting with the lowest priority (highest number) load. The

Symphony II system will add or remove managed loads based on

the generator output capacity and priority settings.

The Symphony II system waits 10 seconds between adding or

removing each load to permit the system to stabilize. If too much

load demand is seen, the Symphony II system will remove all

managed loads quickly to prevent the generator from overloading.

Once the load demand has stabilized, the Symphony II system will

determine when power is available and then add the remote module

loads to the generator after a 5 minute delay.

There is a minimum five minute delay between the time utility

power is lost and priority 1 loads may be energized by the

Symphony II system.

Be aware that managed heating element energy loads (such as

electric range burners, oven, or space heaters) that were ON

when utility power was lost, will be ON when the generator begins

supplying power. It is advised that the owner check all such

managed devices to ensure they are turned OFF before generator

power appears.

Managed devices like clothes dryers that require pressing a START

button will not resume operation unless the START button is

pressed after generator power begins.

Enclosure Door

To open the transfer switch door, remove the two exterior thumb

screws (A) and carefully lift off door.

To close and secure the door, push door closed against enclosure.

While in this position, the door can rest on the tab (B) at the

bottom of the enclosure. Reinstall both thumb screws to finger

tight. Enclosure door MUST be closed and secured at all times

except when system is being serviced.
