SECTION 2: RECEIVING, HANDLING, AND
STORAGE
2.1 RECEIVING
Every effort is made to ensure that the transfer switch
equipment arrives at its destination undamaged and
ready for installation. Packing is designed to protect
internal components as well as the enclosure. Care
should be exercised, however, to protect the equipment
from impact at all times. Do not remove protective pack-
aging until the equipment is ready for installation .
When transfer switch equipment reaches its destination,
the customer should inspect the shipping container for
any obvious signs of rough handling and/ or external
damage that occurred during transportation. Record any
external and internal damage for reporting to the trans-
portation carrier and Cutler-Hammer, once a thorough
inspection is complete. All claims should be as specific
as possible and include Shop Order and General Order
numbers.
A shipping label affixed to the shipping container
includes a variety of equipment and customer informa-
tion, such as General Order number and Customer
Number. Make certain that this information matches
other shipping paper information.
Each transfer switch enclosure is packaged in its own
box. Heavy duty cardboard sides surround the enclo-
sure and are further supported with reinforced card-
board corner posts. A heavy duty cardboard lid which
will be used as a template for locating the mounting
holes covers the entire opening. Do not discard the
packing material until the equipment is ready for installa-
tion.
Once the top packaging is removed from the shipment,
the enclosure door can be opened. A plastic bag of doc-
uments will be found in the enclosure, usually attached
to the inside of the door. Important documents, such as
test reports, wiring diagrams, appropriate instruction
leaflets and a warranty registration card, are enclosed
within the bag and should be filed in a safe place.
2.2 HANDLING
As previously mentioned, transfer switch equipment is
packaged in its own box. Protect the equipment from
impact at all times and do not double stack. Once the
equipment is in the installation location and ready to be
installed, packaging material can be removed. Refer to
Section 4 of this manual for specific installation instruc-
tions.
2.3 STORAGE
Although well packaged, this equipment is not suitable
for storage outdoors. The equipment warranty will not
be applicable if there is evidence of outdoor storage. If
the equipment is to be stored indoors for any period of
time, it should be stored with its protective packaging
material in place. Protect the equipment at all times from
excessive moisture, construction dirt, corrosive condi-
tions, and other contaminants. It is strongly suggested
that the package-protected equipment be stored in a cli-
mate-controlled environment of -20°C to 65°C with a rel-
ative humidity of 80 percent or less. Do not under any
circumstance, stack other equipment on top of a transfer
switch equipment enclosure, whether packaged or not.
