‹2.6.5 ISOLATING DIFFERENT POWER SOURCES

Connections from the junction box must terminate in

adouble-pole, double-throw transfer switch (Figure 2.14). An alternate method for isolating different power sources is by using an isolating receptacle (Figure 2.15). Whichever method is used, be certain that both power sources are NOT connected at the same time.

‹2.6.6 POWER SUPPLY CORD

The power supply cord must comply with all appli- cable codes, standards and regulations. It must be large enough to handle the full amperage to which it will be subjected.
