Section 3 — Operation
“HS” Type Transfer Switch
Connect power source load conductors to clearly 
marked transfer mechanism terminal lugs as fol-
lows
1.  Connect UTILITY (NORMAL) power source cables 
to switch terminals N1, N2.
2.  Connect EMERGENCY (STANDBY) source power 
cables to transfer switch terminals E1, E2.
3.  Connect customer LOAD leads to switch termi-
nals T1, T2.
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.
Be sure to maintain proper electrical clearance 
between live metal parts and grounded metal. Allow 
at least 1/2 inch for 100-400 amp circuits.

CONNECTING START CIRCUIT
WIRES
Control system interconnections (Section 6) consist 
of UTILITY 1 (N1) and UTILITY 2 (N2), LOAD 1 
(T1) and LOAD 2 (T2), and leads 23 and 194 when 
used in conjunction with some water-cooled genera-
tors. Recommended wire gauge sizes for this wiring 
depends on the length of the wire, as recommended 
below:
NOTE:
If there are no matching terminal connections for 
LOAD 1 (T1) and LOAD 2 (T2) in the generator 
control panel, do not connect these wires. Failure 
of the control board will occur if connected.
3.1  
FUNCTIONAL TESTS AND
ADJUSTMENTS
Following transfer switch installation and inter-
connection, inspect the entire installation care-
fully. A competent, qualified electrician should 
inspect it. The installation should comply strictly 
with all applicable codes, standards, and regula-
tions. When absolutely certain the installation is 
proper and correct, complete a functional test of 
the system.
  Perform functional tests in the exact order pre-
sented in this manual, or damage could be done 
to the switch.
IMPORTANT: Before proceeding with functional tests, 
read and make sure all instructions and information 
in this section are understood. Also read the infor-
mation and instructions of labels and decals affixed 
to the switch. Note any options or accessories that 
might be installed and review their operation.
3.2   MANUAL OPERATION
DANGER
  Do NOT manually transfer under load. 
Disconnect transfer switch from all power sourc-
es by approved means, such as a main circuit 
breaker(s).
A manual HANDLE is shipped with the transfer 
switch. Manual operation must be checked BEFORE 
the transfer switch is operated electrically. To check 
manual operation, proceed as follows:
1.  Turn the generator’s AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch 
to OFF.
2.  Turn OFF both UTILITY and EMERGENCY power 
supplies to the transfer switch, with whatever 
means provided (such as the main line circuit 
breakers).
3.  Note position of transfer mechanism main con-
tacts by observing the moveable contact carrier 
arm.
• Manual operation handle towards the top of 
switch mechanism - LOAD terminals (T1, T2) are 
connected to UTILITY terminals (N1, N2).
• Manual operation handle towards the bottom of 
switch mechanism - LOAD terminals (T1, T2) are 
connected to EMERGENCY terminals (E1, E2).
  Do not use excessive force when operating the 
transfer switch manually or damage could be 
done to the manual handle.
3.2.1   CLOSE TO NORMAL SOURCE SIDE
Before proceeding, verify the position of the switch 
by observing the position of manual operation handle 
in Figure 3.1. If the handle is UP, the contacts are 
closed in the NORMAL position, no further action is 
required. If the handle is DOWN, proceed with Step 
1.
