8.2.5.1 Generator Basic Operation
When powered up, the energy produced from the gen-
erator is routed through the AC Panel’s 50 amp toggle
double-breaker switch labeled “Generator”. The toggle
switch is managed by a slide-bar stopper. This stop-
per will only allow source power to be either from shore
power or from the generator. Switching on the generator
toggle breaker switch will energize the AC panel. Actual
control of the generator is through the generator remote
panel.
