OPTIONAL USE WITH A PORTABLE GENERATOR

An added feature of the GENERAC® Generator Ready Kit is the ability to hook up a GUARDIAN® ULTRA SOURCE portable generator. Included in the kit is a 5 foot electrical power cord (black & red), neutral (white) and ground (green) wires. At one end are the terminal connectors. At the other end is the male connector (NEMA 14-50) which plugs into the GUARDIAN® ULTRA SOURCE portable generator’s control panel. To install this option, insert the terminal wire end of the power cord into the bottom of the external connection box through the conduit clamp (not included) from the outside. Allow about an inch of the power cord insulation to enter beyond the clamp to the inside of the box. TIghten clamp securely. Attach ground wire (green) to the bottom of the box using the supplied ground screw and pre-drilled hole. Connect red, black and white wires each to separate lug posts. Make sure hold down nuts are tightened securely.

CAUTION:

If you are performing this step after the 30 foot conduit has been connected inside of the external connection box you must match the black, red and white wires to the lugs of the wires previously placed. (For example: black to black; red to red, etc.)
