DCA-220SSK — OUTPUT TERMINAL PANEL OVERVIEW

How to read the output terminal gauges.

The gauges and knobs on the control panel DO NOT effect the generator output in any fashion. They are there to simply help the operator observe how much power is being supplied produced at the UVWO legs.

When the Voltage selector switch is in the 240/120V position (see Figure 16), place the AC Voltmeter Change- over switch to the W-U position and the AC ammeter Change -over Switch to the U or W position to read the output on the selected leg.
