DCA-60SSAI — OUTPUTTERMINAL PANEL

Output Terminal Panel

The output control panel is located on the rear (control panel) end of the generator. The UNV lugs are protected by a face plate cover that can be secured in the close position by a pad lock.

120 Volt Receptacle

One GFCI Duplex NEMA 5-20R (120V, 20 Amp) receptacle is located on the output terminal. This receptacle can be used anytime the generator is in operation. The receptacle is controlled by the circuit breaker located on the control panel.

The reset button will reset the receptacle after being tripped. Pressing the :Test Button” (Figure 8) in the center of this receptacle will check the GFCI function. The receptacle should be tested at least once a month.

Twist Lock Dual Voltage Receptacles - To use these receptacles, place the voltage selector switch in the single phase 240/120 voltage position and adjust the output voltage to 240 volts with the voltage regulator on the Control Panel (Figure 8, page 28). Place the voltmeter change-over switch to the U-W position and the ammeter change-over switch to the U or W to read the output.

Connecting Load

Loads can be connected to the generator by the UVWO lugs or the duplex receptacles. (See figure 3). Make sure to read the operation manual before attempting to connect a load to the generator.

Generator Grounding

Make sure the generator is properly grounded before applying load. Generators are NOT considered grounded when mounted on a trailer.

Circuit Breakers

To protect the generator from an overload, a 3-pole, 150 amp, main circuit breaker is provided to protect the UVWO output terminals from overload. In addition two single-pole, 20 amp GFCI circuit breakers are provided to protect the GFCI receptacles from overload. Three 50 amp load circuit breakers have also been provided to protect the load side of the generator from overload. Make sure to switch ALL circuit breakers to the "OFF" position prior to starting the engine.

Maximum Output

The entire load connected to the UVWO lugs, all four slots in the duplex receptacles, and the must not exceed 52.8 kW in standby or 48 kW in prime output.

Generator Grounding

Make sure to ground the generator in EVERY application prior to connecting a load. Generators are NOT grounded just because they are mounted on trailers or other vehicles that are on rubber tires.
