DCA-25SSAI — OUTPUT TERMINAL PANEL
Output Terminal Panel
The output control panel is located on the rear (control panel)
end of the generator. The UVW lugs are protected by a face
plate cover that can be secured in the close position by a
pad lock.
120 Volt Receptacle
One GFCI Duplex NEMA 5-20R (120V, 20 Amp) receptacle
is located on the output terminal. This receptacle can be
used anytime the generator is in operation. The receptacle
is controlled by the circuit breaker located on the control
panel.
The reset button will reset the receptacle after being tripped.
Pressing the "Test Button" (See Figure 8) in the center of
this receptacle will check the GFCI function. The receptacle
should be tested at least once a month.

120V Receptacles - These receptacles can be used
anytime the generator is in operation. They are controlled
by the circuit breakers above them.
Twist Lock Dual Voltage Receptacles - To use these
receptacles, place the voltage selector switch in the single
phase 240/120 voltage position and adjust the output
voltage to 240 volts with the voltage regulator on the
control panel (see Figure 6, page 24). Place the voltmeter
change-over switch to the U-W position and the ammeter
change-over switch to the U or W to read the output.
