TIGHTEN CONNECTION
LUGS WITH A HEX WRENCH
GENERATOR OUTPUT CONNECTION LUGS
The generator is equipped with connection lugs behind a door below the controller face. The lugs provide connection
points for attachment of external loads to the generator. A large decal on the inside of the connection lug door
details the proper connections for selected voltages.
Connections to the lugs should be made by running the power
cables through the circular plastic bushing on the lower right side
of the control box. DO NOT make any connections directly to the
lugs without routing the cables through this bushing. The lug door
is equipped with safety interlock switches that will automatically
trip the main circuit breaker and disable the voltage regulator when
the lug door is opened. Use a hex-wrench to tighten the cable
connections.
A ground connection is located next to the connection lugs. The
unit MUST HAVE this ground lug connected to a good earthen
ground for proper operating safety. The ground connection should
be in compliance with the National Electric Code (NEC) as well as
any state or local guidelines or codes.

WARNING
It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that only a trained and licensed electrician perform any wiring and
related connections to the generator. Installation should be in compliance with the National
Electric Code (NEC) as well as any local or state guidelines as required by law. Failure to follow
proper installation requirements may result in equipment or property damage, personal injury
or death.
WARNING
Before any connections are made to the generator, make sure that the main circuit breaker and
the control power switch are in the OFF “O” position. Potentially lethal voltages may be present
at the generator connection lugs.
IMPROPER OR INCORRECT CONNECTIONS TO A BUILDINGS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAN CAUSE
POTENTIALLY LETHAL VOLTAGE TO BACKFEED ONTO UTILITY LINES. THIS MAY RESULT IN
INJURY OR ELECTROCUTION TO UTILITY WORKERS NEARBY. MAKE SURE THE GENERATOR IS
SUPPLYING POWER TO AN ISOLATED OBJECT OR BUILDING THAT IS NOT CONNECTED TO ANY
UTILITY LINES.
DANGER
Never attempt to disable or modify the lug door
safety switches. Equipment damage, personal
injury or death may result.
