INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Determine where you want your
EmerGen Switch located, either to
the left or right of the load center.
If the EmerGen Switch is to be
located to the right of the load
center, you will need to relocate
the wire bundle out the left side.
The EGS is factory assembled with
the wire bundle exiting right.
4. TURN OFF POWER. The main circuit breaker,
or service disconnect, to your load center
(typically located at the top) should be switched
to the OFF position. CAUTION—THIS DOES NOT
AFFECT THE WIRES ON THE LINE SIDE OF THE MAIN BREAKER—THEY WILL
REMAIN LIVE! Remove the cover of the load center.
Advertissement: Ouvrir L’interrupteur principal ou le disjoncteur dans le panneau de
distribution avant l’installation ou l’entretien.
5. Identify the appropriate
knockout to remove in the load
center. 1” trade size for the 6
circuit models, 1-1/4” for the
10 circuit model.
7. Insert the wires from the conduit through the knockout, taking care not to
nick or gouge the wires on the metal edge. Slide the locknut over the loads and
tighten securely onto the conduit fitting.
8. Without over-manipulating the flex conduit, secure your EmerGen Switch to the
wall with fasteners appropriate for the wall’s construction. If you are mounting
this unit flush in the wall, follow Flush Install Instructions.
6. Trim the supplied conduit
to the desired length and slide
over the EmerGen Switch
wires. Attach to the fitting on
the EmerGen Switch. Slide the
supplied fitting over the wires
and attach to the conduit.
2. To relocate the wire bundle, open the front
cover by removing the four screws. Knock out
the appropriate knockout on the left side. Re-
move conduit fitting and carefully remove
wire bundle and route through the jam nut and
through the hole on the left side. Slide conduit
fitting over leads and secure with jam nut.
3. Cover open hole
with supplied gasket
and cover plate
