The transfer switch is designed to be maintenance free under normal usage. However, inspection and maintenance checks should be made on a regular basis. Maintenance will consist mainly of keeping the transfer switch clean.
Visual inspections should be done at least three times each year. Access to the transfer switch and optional remote modules must not be obstructed. Keep 3 feet (92 cm) clearance around transfer switch. Check for an accumulation of dirt, moisture and/or corrosion on and around the enclosure, loose parts/hardware, cracks and/or discoloration to insulation, and damaged or discolored components.
Exercise the transfer switch and Symphony II system at least once every three months as described in Testing the Automatic Transfer Switch and in Testing the Symphony II Power Management System unless a power outage occurs and the entire home generator system has gone through an automatic sequence. Allow generator to run for at least 10 minutes during exercise cycle.
