Installation Instructions

1. Plan the generator location.

NOTE:

For the generator installation, utilize the standby generator

installation and owner's manuals. Ensure that the distance from

the structure (Minimum 18 " inches) allows for slack in the five

foot pre-wired liquid tight conduit and that it meets the code.

2. Determine where the flexible conduit will pass through the build-

ing from inside to outside. When certain there is clearance on

each side of the wall, drill a small pilot hole through the wall to

mark the location. Drill an appropriate sized hole through the

sheathing and siding with hole saw.

3. While adhering to all local electrical codes, route the 30 foot

conduit along ceiling/floor joists and wall studs to the location

where the conduit will pass through the wall to the exterior of the

building.

NOTE:

The 30 foot flexible conduit can be lengthened a maximum of 15

additional feet using the same conductor size and conduit diam-

eter. The lengthening must comply with local, state and/or fed-

eral codes. The splice point must be in an approved junction box

per code. The 2 foot and 5 foot conduit cannot be lengthened.
