Equipment Description

The transfer switches are intended to transfer the entire load

of normal residential installations when used with the

supervisory contacts provided. The load is connected either

to utility power (normal) or home standby power

(generator). The transfer switch monitors utility and

generator voltages and will automatically connect to the

appropriate source of power.

These switches make it easy for a licensed electrician to

complete a home standby installation. The unit contains

utility service disconnect circuit breaker, generator

disconnect circuit breaker and automatic transfer switch in

one enclosure. Service conduit and conductors can be wired

directly from your meter to the transfer switch. A separate

disconnect and associated wiring are not required when

installed per applicable federal, state and local codes,

standards and regulations.

Major components of the transfer switch are a 2 pole utility

disconnect circuit breaker, a 2 pole generator disconnect

circuit breaker, a 2 pole double throw transfer switch, control

circuit board, fused utility terminals and interconnecting

wiring. The control board also has two inputs for current

transformers that sense generator current.

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.

The control circuit board has active circuits sensing utility

and generator voltages. It creates a signal for the generator

start-up, switch transfer and retransfer when utility is

restored. The control board also contains red and green

LED’s indicating the power sources available and two relay

operated contacts that provide supervisory control of

external loads.

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 installed on JP2 from

‘20’ position to ‘50’ position.

• Place the 2 position sliding switch on the control

module in the NG or LP position, whichever is

appropriate for your system.

• Place the 3 position sliding switch on the control

module to match the KW rating of the Home Standby

Generator set.

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.

Operation

To select automatic transfer operation, do the following:

1. Set utility service disconnect circuit breaker in transfer

switch to “On” position.

2. Set generator disconnect circuit breaker in transfer

switch to “On” position.

3. Set generator’s main circuit breaker to its “On” position.

4. Install 15 Amp fuse in control panel on generator.

5A. If generator is equipped with a system ON/OFF switch,

set switch to “ON” position.

B. If generator is equipped with a AUTO/OFF/MANUAL

switch, set switch to “AUTO” position.

The system will now be in automatic operation mode.

When the generator is providing power to the transfer

switch, the controller is constantly monitoring generator

power. If the air conditioner is called to run, and there is

sufficient generator power available, the controller will close

contacts “A-A” to air conditioner contactor. Contacts “B-B”

will open before contacts A-A close. If loads are too great for

generator, contacts A-A and/or B-B will open. When air

conditioning is not needed, A-A will open. If enough power is

available, B-B will close.

Testing the Automatic Transfer Switch

Turn the utility disconnect circuit breaker in the transfer

switch, to the “Off” position. The automatic sequence will

follow. To go back to utility power, turn the utility disconnect

circuit breaker to the “On” position.

Utility Fail

The Home Standby Generator set senses when utility voltage

is below 70 percent of nominal. Engine start sequence is

initiated after 6 second time delay.

Engine Warm-Up

Time delay to allow for engine warm-up before transfer is

fixed at 20 seconds or 50 seconds with removal of jumper

on control board.

Transfer

Transfer from utility to generator supply occurs after voltage

is above set levels. Minimum engine run time is 5 minutes

after transfer.

Utility Pickup

Voltage pickup level is 80 percent of nominal voltage.

Retransfer

Retransfer from generator to utility supply is approximately

10 seconds after utility voltage supply is above pickup level

and minimum run time is completed.

Engine Cool Down

Engine will run for 60 seconds after retransfer.

Maintenance

The transfer switch is designed to be maintenance free under

normal usage. However, inspection and maintenance checks

should be made on a regular basis. Maintenance will consist

mainly of keeping the transfer switch clean.

Visual inspections should be done at least once a month.

Access to transfer switch must not be obstructed. Keep

3 feet (92 cm) clearance around transfer switch. Check for

an accumulation of dirt, moisture and/or corrosion on and

around the enclosure, loose parts/hardware, cracks and/or

discoloration to insulation, and damaged or discolored

components.

Exercise the transfer switch at least once every three months

as described in the previous section Testing the Automatic

Transfer Switch unless a power outage occurs and Home

Generator System has gone through automatic sequence.

Allow generator to run for at least 30 minutes.

Contact a licensed electrical professional to inspect and clean

the inside of your transfer switch at least once a year.

Descripción del Equipo

Estos conectadores pertenecen a una nueva generación

destinada a transferir toda la carga de instalaciones

residenciales normales cuando se utilizan con los contactos

de supervisión previstos. La carga se conecta a la red

pública (normal) o a la alimentación doméstica de reserva

(generador). El conectador monitoriza las tensiones de la red

pública y del generador y conecta automáticamente la carga

a la fuente de alimentación apropiada.

Con estos interruptores, un electricista cualificado puede

completar fácilmente una instalación doméstica de reserva.

La unidad contiene un seccionador de servicio y un

conectador automático en una misma caja. El conducto y los

conductores de servicio se pueden cablear directamente

desde el contador hasta el conectador. No es necesario

instalar un seccionador distinto, con su correspondiente

cableado, para cumplir toda la normativa vigente.

Los componentes principales del conectador son un

disyuntor seccionador de servicio bipolar, un interruptor

bipolar de 2 posiciones de contacto, una tarjeta de circuito

impreso del módulo de control, terminales con fusibles de

detección de tensión de la red pública y cableado de

interconexión.

El conectador es accionado por un solenoide alimentado

desde las entradas de la red pública o del generador y tiene

interruptores de enclavamiento mecánicos y eléctricos,

adecuados para eliminar la posibilidad de conectar la red

pública a la salida del generador. Sus valores nominales son

suficientes para conectar toda potencia de la red pública a la

residencia. Para la función de transferencia hay una palanca

de cancelación manual.

La tarjeta de circuito impreso del módulo de control tiene

circuitos activos que detectan las tensiones de la red pública

y del generador. Genera una señal para el arranque del

generador, el conectador, la retransferencia cuando se

restablece la tensión en la red pública y los períodos de

enfriamiento del generador. La tarjeta de control contiene

también luces rojas y verdes que indican las fuentes de

alimentación disponibles y dos contactos accionados por

relé que proporcionan el control de supervisión de cargas

críticas externas.
