Because GFCI andAFCI circuit breakers can take mohan one space, the overall maximum number ofcircuits maybe reduced from the numbershown. Contact GenTran for more information on these circuit breaker types. STEP 1: PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION: 1. Determine the appliances, circuits or equipment you want to operate with generator power during a power outage, such as: • Refrigerator/Freezer Water Heater Security System • Furnace Blower (gas/oil only) Garage Door Opener Sump Pump • TV / Radio Microwave, Coffee Maker Computer, Fax and Printer, Phone • Lighting Well Pump Aquarium 2. Determine the amps required for each appliance by reading the label on the appliance. IMPORTANT: No appliance should haJe.an amperage rating that exceeds the GEN MAIN breaker rating in the transfer switch (See Table 1). The total amperage of all circuits can exceed the generator rating, but not all circuits will be able to be used concurrently. 3. Assign the circuit # in the load center to a circuit (A2, B2, etc.) in the transfer switch matching the size of.the circuit breaker in the load center to the circuit breaker in the transfer switch. Once you've determined which circuits you want to connect and the appropriate amperage, you will be ready to begin installing your GenTran° transfer switch. 4. The location of your load center/electrical panel in your home or business will determine where the GenTran° transfer switch will be installed. Refer to the illustrations below. In addition to the transfer switch, you may need additional accessories to complete your generator transfer switch installation, such as a generator cord and power inlet box. A generator cord (sold separately) is needed to connect your, generator to the GenTran° transfer switch or power inlet box. If your load center is in your garage, we recommend at least a 25 -foot generator cord to reach from your generator'outside the garage on the driveway to the transfer switch. .,NEVER run a generator in an enclosed area! If your load center is in a basement or interior room, you shall install a power inlet box (sold separately) on the exterior of your house or building to avoid running the generator cord through a door or window. Once you have all of the essential components for your specific needs, you may proceed with the installation. TYPICAL INSTALLATION: Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell. NEVER use inside a h6 me Only use OUTSIDE and or garage: EVEN IF doors far away from windows, and windows are open. doors, and vents. TABLE -2 - CIRCUIT. WORKSHEET_ _ �:....

SURFACE MOUNT INSTALLATIONS: A. "Hard -wired" Generator Connection. using"a Power --Inlet Box: 1. Select a location on the left or right side of the load center to mount transfer switch, as it is provided with a 24" Flexible conduit wiring harness. Remove the load center dead front cover, save the screws. Locate and _remove a knockout (KO) on the lower side of.the load center that matches the conduit fitting size on the wiring harness. 2. Determine if the wiring harness needs to.be shortened. If so, remove the wires from the wiring harness and cut conduit to desired length. [NOTE The Electrical Non -Metallic Tubing (ENT) provided with Models 2026 and 3028 is UL Listed and recognized by the National Electrical Code (NEC) However, some local codes and inspectors may prohibit its use in buildings that exceed (3) floors above grade. if this situation arises, �c8ll888-GEN-TRAN7o request a length'offlexible metal conduit (FMC) and fittings to use instead.) 3. Attach the wiring harness to the load center; hold the transfer switch in position against the wall on which it is to be mounted and using the provided template, mark the holes on the wall for the anchoring screws and anchor transfer switch to wall (anchors not provided): 4. Remove transfer switch dead front cover, saye.screws, allow the cover to.hang down, supported,by the meters wires. . 5. Install appropriately sized conduit, fittings and wire be the Power, Inlet Box (PIB)-mounted on the building exterior and the transfer switch, referring to power inlet box installation instructions. Locate and remove a KO in the transfer switch, pull wire into transfer switch enclosure and secure wire with fitting. 6. Using provided wire connector, connect the generator green ground wire with the green wire inside the transfer -switch. Connect the generator white neutral wire into neutral bar on the left. Using provided wire connectors, connect the generator black wire io'black wiring going to Meter "A". Repeat for generator red wire to Meter "B". See FIGURE 2 WIRING DIAGRAM. Reinstall transfer switch dead.front cover. 7. In the main load center, remove the wires from the.breakers for the loads that will be.relocated to the transfer switch. Cut each blue harness wire (A2-66) to a convenient length, strip off 5/V insulation and connect to the wires removed from the breakers per TABLE 2 with the provided wire connectors. 8. Remove two adjacent single pole breakers from which the.load wires were removed and install the NEW 60A 2 -pole circuit breaker (as required in the Other Items Needed section) in their place.•Insert.the unmarked BLACK wires from the harness into the new circuit breaker. Terminate the WHITE and GREEN wire in the harness in an open position in the Neutral and Ground bars respectively: If there is no separate. ground bar, insert the GREEN wire into an open position in the NEUTRAL bar, and tighten. 9. Reinstall the main load center.dead front cover, and turn ON the MAIN breaker in the main load center. Turn ON all branch circuit breakers in both panels. Turn ON the UTIL MAIN in the transfer switch. Check that power is restored to all appliances. Installation is"now complete. B. "Plug-in" Generator Connection using a Power Cord: 1. Remove transfer switch dead front cover, save screws and allow the cover to hang down.supported by the meter wires. 2. Remove the 3 screws that secure the round cover plate to.the front of the transfer switch. Retain screws, discard plate. Locate the Power Inlet Kit, connect to the . W (white) terminal of the Power Inlet Kit an 8 piece of white 10 AWG THHN orMTW wire, and strip 5/8"insulation off of unconnected end. 3. Remove and discard wire connectors from the black, red and green wires attached to:the meters. Strip 5/8" insulation off of wires, feed through round hole in dead front cover, insert and tighten'the black wire into X terminal of,the Power Inlet Kit, the red wire into the Y terminal and green wire into the Ground terminal. Insert Power inlet into hole from which the cover was removed. Align the 3 holes inthe Power inlet Kit Flange to the 3 holes in the cover, secure with the 3 screws retained in step 1. Connect the white neutral wire into neutral baron the'left. Torque all terminations to specifications on product label. See FIGURE 2 WIRING DIAGRAM. Reinstall dead front cover to transfer switch. Proceed to Step 1 in Section IA above; skipping Steps 4, 5 and 6. II. FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATIONS: 1.
