REMOTE
CONTROL
CONNECTIONS
Provision is made foraddition of remote starting. This
is accomplished on a 4 place terminal block situated
within the control box. Connect one or more remote
switches across remote terminal and. B+ terminal as
shown in Figure 15. If the distance between the set
and remote station is less than 1000-feet (305 m), use
No.
18 AWG wire; between 1000- and 2000-feet
(305 m and 610 m), use No. 16 AWG wire.

WIRING CONNECTIONS
Most local regulations require that wiring connec-
tions be made by a licensed electrician and thatthe
installation be inspected and approved before opera-
tion.
All connections, wire sizes, etc. must conform to
requirements of electrical codes in effect at the
installation site.
Generator set grounding must be in accordance with
National Electrical Code (NFPA 70-1975) Article 250.
If the installation is for standby service, a double
throw transfer switch must always be used. Connect
this switch (either automatic or manual) so that it is
impossible for commercial power and generator
current to be connected to the load at the same time.
See Figure 16. Instructions for connecting an
automatic load transfer control are included with
such equipment.

Control Box Connections: The factory ships these 12
lead generators with load connection wires NOT
connected together in the control box. These 12 wires
are labeled Tl through T12 and must be brought
together before making load connections. Proceed as
follows:
1.
Remove either right, left or top panel from control
box. See Figure 17.
2.
Connect wires together as shown on panel draw-
ing and in Figure 1 according to voltage desired.
3. Open hinged control panel doors. Connect lead
from terminal 63 to correct terminal for voltage
desired.
These terminals are labeled H2, H3, H4,
H5 and H6. See Figure 18.

5. Connect load wires to generator leads.
Preceding instructions do not apply to models designated Code 3
or 9X; this connection is made at the factory. The installer must only
connect load wires.
