DCA-600SSV— GENERATOR START-UP PROCEDURE (MANUAL)
16. The ammeter (Figure 54) will indicate zero amps with no 20. Press the main circuit breaker “ON” switch (Figure 58). load applied. When a load is applied, the ammeter will
indicate the amount of current that the load is drawing from the generator.
