7.9Remote Emergency Stop Switch

The emergency stop switch allows immediate shutdown of the generator from a remote location. If the emergency stop switch is activated, the emergency stop lamp on the generator controller lights and the unit shuts down immediately. The generator cannot be restarted until the emergency stop switch is reset. See Figure 7-8.

7.10 Dry Contact Kit

The dry contact kit allows monitoring of the standby system and/or the ability to activate accessories from a remote location. Customer- provided warning devices (lamps, horns, etc.) can be connected to any of the generator controller’s alarm/indication outputs, allowing the user to “customize” an alarm system to their needs.

7.11 Wiring

Connections between the components of a standby generator system differ based on the type of equipment used, options, and installation. Figure 8-6 on the following page gives examples of the possible options and wire connections necessary to make a standby system operational. You should always refer to the wiring diagram for details regarding wire sizing, location, and number.
