Transfer Switch Installation Guidelines 7
Section 3
Operation
3.1 — Transferring From Utility Power to Generator Power
NEVER run portable generators indoors or in garages, basements, or sheds. Portable generators should always be
used at least 5 feet away from windows, doors, vents, or any other opening. Carbon Monoxide (CO) from a genera-
tor is deadly and can kill you in minutes. Read and follow all generator directions before use.
1. Move generator outdoors. Be sure your generator is located at least 5 feet from windows, doors or other
openings to prevent dangerous carbon monoxide fumes from entering your home.
2. Insert the male plug of the Power Cord into the correct outlet on the generator.
3. Plug in the female connector of the Power Cord to the inlet (if provided) located on the bottom of the Transfer
switch.
4. Turn OFF all circuit breakers in the Transfer switch and Main load center.
5. Start the generator outdoors, following the procedures described in the generator’s Owner’s Manual furnished
by the manufacturer.
6. Turn ON the GENERATOR MAIN circuit breaker in the Transfer switch.
7. Turn ON individual circuit breakers in the Transfer switch and the Main Load Center up to the continuous watt-
age rating of your generator. If the Generator Main breaker trips, you have overloaded the generator. Some cir-
cuit breakers must be turned OFF to avoid damage to the generator or loads being connected.
3.2 — Transferring from Generator Power to Utility Power
1. On the Transfer switch, turn OFF Generator MAIN breaker and turn ON Utility MAIN breaker. To do this, slide
the interlock mechanism up with the left hand while turning ON the 200 amp circuit breaker.
2. Turn ON any branch circuit breakers in the Transfer switch and Main Load Center that are OFF.
3. Shut down the generator, following the procedures in the generator Owner’s Manual.
4. Unplug the power cord from the Transfer switch and then the generator.
5. Let the generator cool down before storing in a dry, secured location.
6. To ensure that your generator will work properly when you need it, it is important to start and run your generator
under load regularly and keep the tank filled with fresh fuel. Perform the above steps at least ONCE A MONTH
to keep the generator properly “exercised”. It is not necessary to turn off any circuits in the MAIN load center
when supplying generator power to the transfer switch.
