How to Read the Output Terminal Gauge.

The AC ammeter and AC voltmeter change-over switches on the control panel DO NOT effect the generator output. They are provided to help observe how much power is being supplied, produced at the UVWO terminals lugs.

When the voltage change-over board is jumpered for 3Ø, 240V operation (See Figures 16 and17), place the AC Volt- meter Change-Over Switch (See Figures 18 and 19) to the W-U position and the AC Ammeter Change-Over Switch (Figure 18) to the U or W position to read the output on the selected leg.

NOTE

The ammeter gauge will only show a reading when the Output Terminal Lugs are connected to a load and in use.
