Test System Operation (Simulate a Power Outage)

Partial disassembly and special tools are required to accurately measure voltage output and frequency. For this reason we recommend you have an authorized Service Dealer test the system operation.

1.

Set the generator’s system switch to OFF.

 

 

2.

Remove the 15 Amp fuse in control panel.

 

 

3.

Remove four screws that hold circuit breaker cover to air

 

intake guard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.

Connect an accurate voltage and frequency meter to line

 

side of generator’s main circuit breaker.

 

 

 

 

 

5.

Set generator’s main circuit breaker to ON (closed)

 

 

 

position.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.

Install 15 Amp fuse in control panel.

 

 

 

 

 

7.

Set generator’s system switch to AUTO.

 

 

 

 

 

8.

Turn utility power OFF. Once the 10 second timer has

 

expired, the engine will crank and start.

 

 

 

 

 

9.

The transfer switch will transfer to Generator power.

 

 

10.

Apply various loads to the generator and observe its

 

 

 

performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

11.

Exercise the generator under varying loads for 30

 

 

 

minutes. Monitor the output voltage and frequency

 

 

 

of the generator to verify it’s performance is within

 

 

 

specifications.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12.

Turn utility power ON.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

13.

When the load is transferred back to the utility power

 

source, the engine cool-down tim

er starts timing.

 

 

14.

The generator will run for abo

 

 

 

nute to cool

 

 

ut one mi
