2. A transfer switch designed for GFCI-equipped generators 

is required to connect to an existing building distribution 

system. 

CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

Failure to properly limit and balance the load applied 

to the generator will cause the generator to produce 

low voltage and may damage the engine generator 

set. It may also cause severe damage to the loads 

connected to the generator at that time. Improper 

loading of the generator set constitutes abuse and will 

not be covered by warranty.
