The definitions below describe the controls and functions
of the Generator Control Panel (Figure 6).
1.
Circuit Breaker (OFF) Lamp — When the circuit
breaker ON switch is placed in the OFF position this
lamp will be turned ON.
2.
Circuit Breaker (ON) Lamp — When the circuit breaker
ON switch is placed in the ON position this lamp willl be
turned ON.
3.
Pilot Lamp — Indicates the system is running.
4.
Panel Light — Normally used in dark areas or at night
time. When activated, panel lights will illuminate. When
the generator is not in use be sure to turn the panel
light switch to the
OFF position.
5.
Frequency Meter — Indicates the output frequency
in hertz (Hz). Normally 60 Hz.
6.
AC Ammeter — Indicates the amount of current the
load is drawing from the generator per leg selected by
the ammeter phase selector switch.
7.
AC Voltmeter — Indicates the output voltage present
at the
U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs.
8.
Ammeter Change-Over Switch — This switch allows
the AC ammeter to indicate the current flowing to the load
connected to any phase of the output terminals, or to be
switched off. This switch does not effect the generator
output in any fashion, it is for current reading only.
9.
Voltmeter Change-Over Switch — This switch allows
the AC voltmeter to indicate phase to phase voltage
between any two phases of the output terminals or to
be switched off.
10.
Circuit Breaker (ON) Switch — Press this switch to
place the 1600 amp circuit breaker in the closed (
ON)
position.
11.
Circuit Breaker (OFF) Switch — Press this switch to
place the 1600 amp circuit breaker in the open (
OFF)
position.
12.
Panel Light Switch — When activated will turn on
both control panel lights.
13.
Voltage Regulator Control — Allows ±15% manual
adjustment of the generator’s output voltage.
