Carefully read all the instructions before using GenerLink.
The best time to prepare for a power outage is before there is an actual interruption
of utility-supplied power. The following are suggested steps to prepare for an actual
power outage using your portable generator and GenerLink.
• Determine which appliances are on each circuit breaker.
Note: circuit breakers may control more than one appliance. We recommend
you affix labels to each circuit breaker listing its appliances.
• Familiarize yourself with the typical power requirements of the appliances you
expect to use during an outage, always taking into consideration the capacity of
your generator. See Sample Worksheets located in this manual.
• Verify that the green status light on the GenerLink unit is illuminated. This light
i
s
located on the collar behind the connection cord below your electric meter.
(See Diagram 1). The yellow status light may also be illuminated, this is a
normal condition.
