1 Australian Wiring Instructions: Generator/Switch Wiring: Remove the generator controller fascia and identify wire #44 going to the circuit breaker in the external connection box, this wire is the active (hot) wire and has a piece of brown heat shrink for identification to coincide with Australian standard structural wiring. Wire #11, also going to the generator breaker is the neutral and it has a piece of blue heat shrink on it for identification. Wire 11 (Neutral) Wire 44 (Active) Generator Circuit Breaker Page 1

The installer will need to provide a NEMA 3R box to house a 35, 50 or 65 amp, Australian approved single pole breaker which can be mounted on the building or on the generator itself.

This wire is then fed into the NEMA 3R box and connected on the input side of the Australian approved breaker.

2 The installer will need to provide a NEMA 3R box to house a 35, 50 or 65 amp, Australian approved single pole breaker which can be mounted on the building or on the generator itself. The installer would connect the brown conductor (hot wire) to the opposite side of the circuit breaker that is fed by wire #44 identified by the brown heat shrink. This wire is then fed into the NEMA 3R box and connected on the input side of the Australian approved breaker. Another brown conductor will be run out of the box after being protected on the output side of the Australian breaker and fed to the transfer switch. An example of the required box is pictured below, it can be found at any electrical distributor for less than $30. Neutral Generator circuit breaker Active Installer provided NEMA 3R box and Australian approved breaker A blue conductor (neutral) will be connected to the breaker opposite to the wire identified as #11 and identified by the blue heat shrink. This conductor is then run to the transfer switch. It does not need to be routed with the brown conductor but can be for ease of wire routing/conduit connection. Page 2

3 A green/yellow conductor (earth) will be landed on the ground block connector in the generator connection shelf, then run to the transfer switch. It does not need to be routed with the brown (active) conductor but can be for ease of wire routing/conduit connection. Connect your control wires (N1, N2, 23, 194, T1 & T2) to the appropriate landings on the generator connection shelf. NOTE: In this application, T2 will be landed on the main neutral post. Land T2 wire here to the Neutral post Earth/Ground Control wires N1, N2, 23, 194, T1 These wires can be run in the same conduit as the power wires if the proper insulation is used. Page 3

requires a disconnect be installed between the electrical meter and transfer switch since this is a

4 RTS Transfer Switch: After mounting the switch, remove the cover to make the electrical connections. Please note that if being used in an application to back up the entire electrical panel, this switch requires a disconnect be installed between the electrical meter and transfer switch since this is a non-service rated switch. Next, install a jumper wire between the provided Neutral block and Earth ground. See below. Page 4

Connect the Active (Hot) brown wire to the left top terminal contact of the transfer mechanism and connect the neutral

5 Run the incoming conductors from the utility disconnect through the appropriate knock out in the transfer switch. Connect the earth ground (green/yellow) to the ground strip provided. Connect the Active (Hot) brown wire to the left top terminal contact of the transfer mechanism and connect the neutral blue wire to the top right terminal contact of the transfer mechanism. NOTE: It is important that the active and neutral wires are not installed in reverse positions. See below. Page 5

6 The next step is to connect the wires that will feed the customer s load center or sub panel. Land an earth (green/yellow) wire on the provided ground terminal and route to the customer s electrical panel. Connect an Active (brown) and Neutral (blue) wire to the customer load terminals labeled T1 & T2 on the transfer mechanism. Be sure that the colors all match, See below. Page 6

7 The next activity will be to connect the generator fed conductors. Connect the generator fed earth (green/yellow) to the provided neutral connection block. Connect the Active (brown) and the Neutral (blue) to the top lugs on the bottom of the of the transfer mechanism. Be sure to match Brown for Brown and Blue for Blue in the correspoding lugs. Connect your control wires (N1, N2, 23, 194, T1 & T2) to the fuse block and connection strip. See below. Proceed with the standard generator start up procedure to check operation, voltage and frequency. Page 7
