OUTPUT TERMINAL PANEL FAMILIARIZATION
Connecting Loads
Loads can be connected to the generator by various
methods, output terminal lugs, camlocks or the convenience
receptacles (Figure 11). Make sure to read the operation
manual before attempting to connect a load to the generator.
To protect the output terminals from overload, a 3-pole,
200-amp, main circuit breaker is provided. Make sure to
switch ALL circuit breakers to the OFF position prior to
starting the engine.

Overcurrent Relay
An overcurrent relay (Figure 12) is connected to the main
circuit breaker. In the event of an overload, both the circuit
breaker and the overcurrent relay may trip. If the circuit
breaker can not be reset, the reset button on the
overcurrent relay must be pressed. The overcurrent relay
is located inside the control box.

NOTICE
Remember the overcurrent relay monitors the current
flowing from the U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs
to the load.
In the event of a short circuit or overcurrent condition,
it will automatically trip the 200-amp main breaker.
To restore power to the Output Terminal Panel, press
the reset button on the overcurrent relay and place the
main circuit breaker in the closed position (ON).
