Installing a Generator Connector
A generator connector allows you to connect an external power generator to the cabinet to sustain services during an AC
power outage. The cabinet supports 30 Amp and 60 Amp generator connectors. You can install a generator connector in the
field as described below. If the cabinet is equipped with charged batteries, this procedure does not affect service.
DANGER!
High voltage may be present. Only a qualified electrician should perform this task. Follow NEC and
local codes when handling power systems. Do not restore AC power until the task is complete.
To prepare for generator connector installation
At the local power transfer switch, disconnect AC power to the cabinet.
Note:
If the cabinet is equipped with charged batteries, this action does not affect service. The equipment
automatically switches to battery reserve power.
Open the splice compartment door.
At the AC load center, switch the Main Service Disconnect and Main main circuit breakers to
OFF
.
Remove the cover panel from the AC load center.
Remove the AC duct cover (two panels) as follows:
a.
Loosen (but do not remove) the mounting screws securing the duct cover panels to the fixture.
b.
Slide the upper panel sideways to align its two keyholes with the two mounting screws. When aligned, pull
the panel away from the fixture.
c.
Slide the lower panel sideways to align its two keyholes with the two mounting screws. When aligned, pull
the panel away from the fixture.
Remove the blank plate that covers the mounting fixture as follows:
a.
From inside the splice compartment, remove the nuts from the four studs anchoring the blank plate to the
cabinet wall.
Note:
Do not discard the four mounting nuts. The nuts will be reused to install the generator connector.
b.
At the exterior front of the cabinet, pull the blank plate away from the cabinet wall to expose the connector
mounting fixture.
