The XW Automatic Generator Start

The wires on the wiring harness can be extended to meet installation requirements. When extending the wire harness, ensure that the extension wires are the same color as the wires on the harness.

	To install the XW Automatic Generator Start using the wiring harness:
	1. Connect each wire on the harness to its intended wire or contact on the generator,
	thermostats, or external switches.
	2. Plug the harness into the connector on the bottom panel of the XW
	Automatic Generator Start.
Wire Identification	Each wire on the harness is identified by a number and a color. The wire numbers are
	shown in Figure 5-9 and their colors and functions are described in Table 5-3.
Wire Size and	Required wire sizes for the external connections to the wiring harness are:
Length
	Table 5-2Required Wiring Size Based on Length of Cable
