1.Follow steps 1 - 6 as described above.
2.Installer to determine size of conduit for bringing power from generator to the Power Center. KOs on bottom of Power Center should be used, although alternate entry is adequate when necessary. Watertight hubs should be used above live breaker terminals. NOTE: If a 2” KO is cut in the side of the Power Center enclosure, the dead front panel may need to be “notched” to clear the 2” fittings. The back of the KO must be 3/8” from the rear of the enclosure.
3.Terminate wires from generator to “Generator Main” circuit breaker lugs on the Right side of the bus assembly. Terminate neutral and ground wires into the appropriate bars provided.
4.Proceed with steps 7, 8 and 9 as described above.

Operating Your Power Center Transfer Switch:
Transferring from Utility Power to Generator Power:
1.Move generator outdoors. WARNING: Operating a generator indoors or in a garage could result in injury or death.
2.Insert the male plug of the Power Cord into the correct outlet on the generator.
3.Plug in the female connector of the Power Cord to the inlet (if provided) located on the bottom of the Power Center.
4.Turn OFF all circuit breakers in the Power Center and Main load center.
5.Start the generator outdoors, following the procedures described in the generator’s owner’s manual furnished by the manufacturer.
6.Turn ON the GENERATOR MAIN circuit breaker in the Power Center.
7.Turn ON individual circuit breakers in the Power Center and the Main load center up to the continuous wattage rating of your generator. If the Generator Main breaker trips, you have overloaded the generator. Some circuit breakers must be turned OFF to avoid damage to the generator or to the loads being connected.
