Controls
Other than a Manual Override lever, there are no operator
controls because this is an automatic transfer switch. The
manual override is to be used only by licensed professionals.
Operation
To select automatic transfer operation, do the following:
1A. For models 071018 & 071019, set disconnect switch
that sends utility power to transfer switch to “ On ”
position. This switch is probably located in the main
breaker panel.
1B. For models 071020 & 071021, set utility breaker in
transfer switch “ On ” position.
2. Set generator main circuit breaker to its “ On ” position.
3. Install 15 Amp fuse in generator control panel.
4A. If generator is equipped with a system AUTO/OFF
switch, set switch to “ AUTO ” position.
B. If generator is equipped with a AUTO/OFF/MANUAL
switch, set switch to “ AUTO ” position.
The system will now be in automatic operation mode.
When the generator is providing power to the transfer
switch, the controller is constantly monitoring generator
power. If the air conditioner is called to run, and there is
sufficient generator power available, the controller will close
contacts “A-A” to air conditioner contactor. Contacts “B-B”
will open before contacts A-A close. If loads are too great for
generator, contacts A-A and/or B-B will open. When air
conditioning is not needed, A-A will open. If enough power is
available, B-B will close.
Testing the Automatic Transfer Switch
Turn the service disconnect feeding the transfer switch
contactor to the “
Off ” position. The automatic sequence of
the system will follow. To go back to utility power, turn the
service disconnect to the “
On ” position.
Utility Fail
The Home Standby Generator set senses when utility voltage
is below 70 percent of nominal. Engine start sequence is
initiated after 6 second time delay.
Engine Warm-Up
Time delay to allow for engine warm-up before transfer is
fixed at 20 seconds or 50 seconds with removal of jumper
on control board.
Transfer
Transfer from utility to generator supply occurs after voltage
is above set levels. Minimum engine run time is 5 minutes
after transfer.
Utility Pickup
Voltage pickup level is 80 percent of nominal voltage.
Retransfer
Retransfer from generator to utility supply is approximately
10 seconds after utility voltage supply is above pickup level
and minimum run time is completed.
Engine Cool Down
Engine will run for 60 seconds after retransfer.
Maintenance
The transfer switch is designed to be maintenance free under
normal usage. However, inspection and maintenance checks
should be made on a regular basis. Maintenance will consist
mainly of keeping the transfer switch clean.
Visual inspections should be done at least once a month.
Access to transfer switch must not be obstructed. Keep
3 feet (92 cm) clearance around transfer switch. Check for
an accumulation of dirt, moisture and/or corrosion on and
around the enclosure, loose parts/hardware, cracks and/or
discoloration to insulation, and damaged or discolored
components.
Exercise the transfer switch at least once every three months
as described in the previous section
Testing the Automatic
Transfer Switch unless a power outage occurs and Home
Generator System has gone through automatic sequence.
Allow generator to run for at least 30 minutes.
Contact a licensed electrical professional to inspect and clean
the inside of your transfer switch at least once a year.
