• Never work on this equipment while physically or
mentally fatigued.
• Keep the transfer switch enclosure door closed and
bolted at all times. Only qualified personnel
should be permitted access to the switch interior.
• In case of an accident caused by electric shock,
immediately shut down the source of electrical
power. If this is not possible, attempt to free the
victim from the live conductor but AVOID DIRECT
CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM. Use a nonconduct-
ing implement, such as a rope or board, to free the
victim from the live conductor. If the victim is
unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate
medical help.
• When an automatic transfer switch is installed for
a standby generator set, the generator engine may
crank and start at any time without warning. To
avoid possible injury that might be caused by such
sudden start-ups, the system’s automatic start cir-
cuit must be disabled before working on or around
the generator or transfer switch. For that purpose,
a SAFETY DISCONNECT is provided inside the
transfer switch. Always set that switch to its MAN-
UAL position before working on the equipment.
Then place a “DO NOT OPERATE” tag on the
transfer switch and on the generator.

free life for the equipment.
This manual has been prepared especially for the
purpose of familiarizing personnel with the design,
application, installation, operation and servicing of
the applicable equipment. Read the manual carefully
and comply with all instructions. This will help to
prevent accidents or damage to equipment that might
otherwise be caused by carelessness, incorrect appli-
cation, or improper procedures.
When requesting information or ordering parts for
this equipment, make sure to include all information
from the DATA PLATE.
Every effort has been expended to make sure that the
contents of this manual are both accurate and cur-
rent. Generac, however, reserves the right to change,
alter or otherwise improve the product at any time
without prior notice.
When requesting information or ordering parts for this
equipment, make sure to include all information from
the DATA PLATE.
Record your Model and Serial numbers in the space
provided below for future reference.
1.2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The pre-packaged transfer switch is designed to use
with pre-packaged standby generator control panels.
It is used for transferring critical electrical loads from
a NORMAL (utility) power source to a STANDBY
(emergency generator) power source. Such a transfer
of loads occurs automatically when the NORMAL
power source fails or is subsequently reduced and
the STANDBY source voltage and frequency have
reached an acceptable level. The transfer switch pre-
vents electrical feedback between two different power
sources (such as the NORMAL and STANDBY
sources) and, for that reason, codes require it in all
standby electric system installations.
MODEL #
SERIAL #
1.4 TRANSFER SWITCH ENCLOSURE
The standard switch enclosure is
a
National
Electrical Manufacturer's Association (NEMA) 1 type.
NEMA 1 type enclosures primarily provide protection
against contact with the enclosed equipment and
against a limited amount of falling dirt.
Once the transfer is completed, the STANDBY power
source then powers electrical loads connected to the
transfer switch. When NORMAL source voltage above
an acceptable (preset) level has been restored, circuit
board action in the pre-packaged control panel initi-
ates re-transfer back to NORMAL power source. After
this re-transfer, the circuit board signals to open the
start circuit to the generator, which shuts down the
engine. The circuit board is then "armed" and ready
for the next drop in NORMAL source voltage.
1.5 SAFE USE OF TRANSFER SWITCH
Before installing, operating or servicing this equip-
ment, read the SAFETY RULES (inside front cover)
carefully. Comply strictly with all SAFETY RULES to
prevent accidents and/or damage to the equipment.
Generac recommends you make a copy of the SAFE-
TY RULES and post them near the transfer switch.
Also, be sure to read all instructions and information
you may find on tags, labels and decals affixed to the
equipment.
NOTE:
Keep in mind the pre-packaged transfer switch is
without any kind of electronic controls. It receives
signals solely from circuit boards contained in the
prepackaged control panel.
Two publications that outline the safe use of transfer
switches are the following:
• National Electrical Code
• UL 1008, STANDARD FOR SAFETY-AUTOMATIC
TRANSFER SWITCHES

Section 2 — Installation
Generac “V” Type and “Y” Type Transfer Switch
2.1 INTRODUCTION TO INSTALLATION
This equipment has been wired and tested at the fac-
tory. Installing the switch includes the following pro-
cedures:
Handle transfer switches carefully when
installing. Do not drop the switch. Protect the
switch against impact at all times, and against
construction grit and metal chips. Never install
a transfer switch that has been damaged.
!
• Mounting the enclosure.
• Connecting power source and load leads.
• Connecting the generator start circuit.
• Installing/connecting any options and accessories.
• Testing functions.
Install the transfer switch as close as possible to the
electrical loads that are to be connected to it. To pre-
vent switch distortion, level all mounting points. If
necessary, use washers behind mounting holes to
level the unit.
2.2 UNPACKING
Carefully unpack the transfer switch. Inspect closely
for any damage that might have occurred during
shipment. The purchaser must file with the carrier
any claims for loss or damage incurred while in tran-
sit.
2.4 CONNECTING POWER SOURCE
AND LOAD LINES
DANGER
Check that all packing material is completely
removed from the switch prior to installation.
Make sure to turn OFF both the normal (Utility)
and standby (generator) power supplies before
trying to connect power source and load lines
to the transfer switch. Supply voltages are
extremely high and dangerous. Contact with
such high voltage power supply lines causes
extremely hazardous, possibly lethal, electrical
shock.
Attach any lifting device to the transfer switch mount-
ing holes or brackets only. DO NOT LIFT THE
SWITCH AT ANY OTHER POINT.
2.3 MOUNTING
Transfer switch components are generally mounted
in a standard NEMA 1 type enclosure (Figure 2.1).
Other options are available such as NEMA 34 and
NEMA 12.
Wiring diagrams and electrical schematics are pro-
vided in this manual. Power source and load connec-
tions are made at a transfer mechanism, inside the
switch enclosure.

These switches (Figures 2.2 and 2.3) are used with a
single phase system, when the single phase NEU-
TRAL line is to be connected to a Neutral Lug and is
not to be switched.
Figure 2.2 — 100 Amp 2-pole Transfer
Mechanism
Solderless, screw-type terminal lugs are standard.
Conductor sizes must be adequate to handle the max-
imum current to which they will be subjected; based
on the 75°C column of tables, charts, etc. used to size
conductors. The installation must comply fully with
all applicable codes, standards and regulations.
Before connecting wiring cables to terminals, remove
any surface oxides from the cable ends with a wire
brush. If ALUMINUM conductors are used, apply cor-
rosion inhibitor to conductors. After tightening ter-
minal lugs, carefully wipe away any excess corrosion
inhibitor.
Figure 2.3 — 200 Amp 2-pole Transfer
Mechanism
All power cables should enter the switch next to
transfer mechanism terminals. Standard terminal
lugs on the transfer mechanism are solderless,
screw-type.
Connect power source load conductors to clearly
marked transfer mechanism terminal lugs as follows
(Figure 2.5 on page 5):
1. Connect NORMAL (utility) power source cables to
switch terminals N1, N2, N3, etc.
2. Connect STANDBY source power cables to trans-
fer switch terminals E1, E2, E3, etc.
3. Connect customer LOAD leads to switch termi-
nals T1, T2, T3, etc.
Conductors must be properly supported, of approved
insulative qualities, protected by approved conduit,
and of the correct wire gauge size in accordance with
applicable codes.

SHOCK.
2. With an accurate AC voltmeter, check for correct
voltage across terminal lugs N1 and N2; N1 to
NEUTRAL; and finally N2 to NEUTRAL (Figure
2.5 on Page 5).
3. When certain that UTILITY supply voltage is correct
and compatible with transfer switch ratings, turn
OFF the UTILITY supply to the transfer switch.
4. On the generator panel, set the Auto/Off/Manual
switch to MANUAL position. The generator
should crank and start.
4. Observe the changeover display on transfer
mechanism as follows:
• If utility arrow is aligned with GREEN band, load
is connected to UTILITY (normal) power source.
• If STANDBY arrow is aligned with GREEN band,
LOAD is connected to STANDBY (emergency)
source.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 several times, being sure the
switch main contacts actuate normally to all posi-
tions.
5. Let the generator stabilize and warm up at no-
load for at least five minutes.
6. When certain that switch operates normally, actu-
ate the main contacts to their UTILITY (normal)
source.
6. Set the generator's main circuit breaker (CBI ) to
its ON or CLOSED position.
NOTE:
DANGER
