CAUTION: Avoid the risk of electrical shock or component
damage by disconnecting from shore power during
electrical storm activity. Use the inverter or start the
generator if AC power is needed.
NOTE: Shown below are the three types of shore power
outlets most commonly used.
The transfer switch automatically transfers AC power from the shore
power cord or generator through the transfer switch to the 110/220 Volt AC
breaker panel. When using the generator as the power source, the transfer
switch has a time delay built into it before transferring power to the AC
breaker panel. This allows the generator time to warm up before applying an
AC load. When operating the generator while hooked to shore power, the
transfer switch automatically selects generator power as priority over shore
power.
NOTE: The shore cord is NOT electrically
connected to the generator. When the
generator is operating, the electrical contacts
of the shore cord are not electrically energized.
