Section 2 Installation Instructions
2.1 Introduction
Have the generator set installed by a Lennox dealer or
authorized representative.
Install the equipment in
compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and
local codes. For Canadian installations, refer to the
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
Note: These instructions outline one procedure for
installing the generator set. Local codes may
require different procedures.
The generator set must be installed outdoors. The
exhaust systems on enclosed units are designed for
outdoor installation only.
Review the information in
Section 1, General, before beginning the installation
procedure.
Note: DO NOT install enclosed generator sets inside a
building.
Note: Install carbon monoxide (CO) detector(s) on
each level of any building adjacent to a generator
set. Locate the detectors to adequately warn the
building’s occupants of the presence of carbon
monoxide.
Read and follow the safety precautions in this manual
and observe the decals on the equipment. Refer to the
diagrams and drawings in Section 4 for dimensions and
electrical connections during the installation procedure.
Read the entire installation procedure and obtain the
accessories and tools needed before beginning
installation. Perform the steps in the order shown.
To install optional accessories, follow the instructions
provided with each kit.
Hazardous voltage.
Backfeed to the utility system can
cause property damage, severe
injury, or death.
If the generator set is used for
standby power, install an automatic
transfer switch to prevent inadvertent
interconnection
of standby and
normal sources of supply.
WARNING
Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can
cause severe injury or death.
Electrocution is possible
whenever electricity is present. Ensure you comply with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrically ground the
generator set, transfer switch, and related equipment and
electrical circuits. Turn off the main circuit breakers of all
power sources before servicing the equipment. Never contact
electrical leads or appliances when standing in water or on wet
ground because these conditions increase the risk of
electrocution.
Carbon monoxide.
Can
cause severe nausea,
fainting, or death.
The exhaust system must be
leakproof and routinely inspected.
WARNING
Generator set operation. Carbon monoxide can cause
severe nausea, fainting, or death.
Carbon monoxide is an
odorless, colorless, tasteless, nonirritating gas that can cause
death if inhaled for even a short time. Avoid breathing exhaust
fumes when working on or near the generator set. Never
operate the generator set inside a building. Never operate the
generator set where exhaust gas could seep inside or be
drawn into a potentially occupied building through windows, air
intake vents, or other openings.
Carbon monoxide detectors. Carbon monoxide can
cause severe nausea, fainting, or death. Install carbon
monoxide detectors on each level of any building adjacent to
the generator set. Locate the detectors to adequately warn the
building’s occupants of the presence of carbon monoxide.
Keep the detectors operational at all times. Periodically test
and replace the carbon monoxide detectors according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
2.1.1 Location Factors
Ideally, the generator set should be mounted on
concrete at ground level. For above-ground installations,
including roof installations, weight considerations are
especially important.
The building engineer must
determine whether the structure can support the weight
of the generator set.
The location of the generator set must:
D
Support the weight of the generator set and related
equipment such as batteries, radiators, and mounting
pad(s). Keep in mind that the mounting pad weight
may exceed the weight of the generator set.
