GENERATOR OUTPUTS/gauge reading
How to Read the Output Terminal Gauge
The AC ammeter and AC voltmeter
Before taking a reading from either gauge, set the Voltage Selector Switch (Figure 14) to the position which produces the required voltage (For example, for 3Ø 240V, choose the center 3Ø 240/139V position on the voltage selector switch.)
Figure 14. Voltage Selector Switch
240/139V 3Ø Positio
NOTICE
For 3Ø 208V/1Ø,120V, place the Voltage Selector Switch in the 3 Phase 240/139 position.
Reading Voltage
To determine the voltage between two terminal lugs, set the AC Voltmeter
For example, to measure the voltage between the W and U terminal lugs, set the AC Voltmeter
Reading Amperage
To determine the amperage at a terminal lug, set the AC Ammeter
For example, to measure the amperage at the U terminal lug, set the AC Ammeter

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