OPERATION
Transfer Switch Cord – 10KPRO
The transfer switch cord, Part No. 210051, is an
optional accessory for the portable generator. It is used
to connect the 50-amp twist lock outlet of the generator
to the transfer switch. If your transfer switch does not
come with a transfer switch cord, order the cord from
Westpro Power.

TRANSFER SWITCH
CONNECTIONS
The Westinghouse generator is wired with the neutral
bonded to ground. If you are connecting your generator
to a transfer switch, the electrician must first determine
what type transfer switch is being used. Transfer
switches for this equipment are either two-pole or three-
pole types.
A two-pole transfer switch will not switch the neutral
from the generator to the service panel. That means
the generator will be grounded to the service panel. To
use the generator with two-pole transfer switches, the
electrician will need to change the neutral from bonded
to floating.
Remove the ground screw from the wires (see Figure
19). Wrap the terminal end of the green wire with
electrical tape so it is insulated. Tape the green wire to
the yellow/green wire so it cannot contact any moving
parts. Connect the yellow/green wire back to ground
using the ground screw.
