Generac 1276-1 owner manual Your Guardian Generator Ready KIT Is NOW Installed

NOTE: Balance must be maintained when moving circuit locations from main electrical distribution panel to emergency load center. Circuit breaker positions alternate buss bars vertically. Circuits sharing a neutral wire should either be moved together to adjacent positions in emergency load center or not moved. If you are unsure of proper procedure or if your installation differs from that described in this guide, consult a licensed professional at this time.

13a Connection of Emergency Circuits

13a. Remove the main electrical distribution panel cover. Remove appropriate size knockout from the bottom or side of the main panel. (A 2-foot flexible conduit is pre-wired from the transfer switch with built-in load center.) Remove threaded lock nut from conduit coupling. Feed all wires through knockout into main panel. Slip lock nut over wires and tighten securely onto conduit coupling.

13b Connection of Emergency Circuits

UL approved wire nuts are included with installation kit.

NOTE: Circuits to be moved must be protected by same size breaker. For example, a 15 amp 120V circuit in emergency load center will replace a 15 amp 120V circuit in main panel.

13b. In your main panel, remove the black (hot) wire from a circuit breaker that protects a circuit you want to have powered in the event of a power failure. Wire nut the black wire to the matching circuit lead wire from the emergency circuit breaker from load center in the transfer switch. (All circuit wires are color coded and labeled for easy identification). Repeat this process with remaining circuits to be powered by the generator. White wires (neutral) in your main distribution panel should remain connected to neutral bar. It is not necessary to move them. The emergency load center in the transfer switch supplies the following circuits: (5) 15A/120V, (3) 20A/120V,

(1) 20A/240V and (1) 30A/240V.

14 Install 70 AMP Circuit Breaker

14.Install the 70 Amp double pole circuit breaker that you have purchased into main electrical distribution panel. This circuit breaker must be compatible with your main electrical distribution panel. It may be necessary to reposition remaining circuit breakers or remove circuit breakers that have been disconnected to accommodate the insertion of the 70 Amp double pole circuit breaker. Connect white wire to the main distribution panel neutral bar. Connect solid green wire to main electrical panel ground bar. Connect the black and red wires to the 70 Amp double pole circuit breaker.
