Equipment Description
The transfer switches are intended to transfer essential
circuits of normal residential installations when used with the
supervisory contacts provided. The load is connected either
to utility power (normal) or home standby power (generator).
The transfer switch monitors utility and generator voltages
and will automatically connect essential circuits to the
appropriate source of power.
These switches make it easy for a licensed electrician to
complete a home standby installation. The transfer switch
contains an automatic transfer switch and control circuitry,
and up to 16 essential branch circuit breakers, all in one
enclosure.
Major components of the transfer switch are a 2 pole
double throw transfer switch, control circuit board, fused
utility terminals, branch circuit breakers and bus, and
interconnecting wiring.
The transfer switch is solenoid-operated from utility or
generator inputs and contain suitable mechanical and
electrical interlock switches to eliminate the possibility of
connecting the utility service to the generator output. It has
ratings capable of switching utility or generator power into
the essential circuits. In addition, a manual override lever is
provided for the transfer function.
The control circuit board has active circuits sensing utility
and generator voltages. It creates a signal for the generator
start-up, switch transfer, retransfer when utility is restored,
and generator cool-down periods. The control board also
contains red and green LED’s indicating the power sources
available and two relay operated contacts that provide
supervisory control of external loads.

Controls
The Manual Override lever is to be used only by licensed
professionals. The essential branch circuit breakers are used
in the same way as those supplied in the main distribution
panel.
Operation
To select automatic transfer operation, do the following:
1. Set essential circuit breaker that sends utility power to
transfer switch to “On” position.
2. Set generator’s main circuit breaker to its “On”
position.
3. Install 15 Amp fuse in control panel on generator.
4A. If generator is equipped with a system ON/OFF switch,
set switch to “ON” 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 essential circuit breaker feeding the transfer switch
to the “Off” position. The automatic sequence will follow. To
go back to utility power, turn the essential circuit breaker 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 (see System Setup).
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.
