120 vaC gFCi receptacles
There are two 120 VAC, 20 amp GFCI (Duplex Nema
5-20R) receptacles provided on the output terminal panel.
These receptacles can be accessed in
any voltage
selector switch position. Each receptacle is protected by a
20 amp circuit breaker. These breakers are located directly
above the GFCI receptacles. Remember the load output
(current) of both GFCI receptacles is dependent on the load
requirements of the U, V, and W output terminal lugs.
Pressing the
reset button resets the GFCI receptacle after
being tripped. Pressing the
test button (See Figure 8) in
the center of the receptacle will check the GFCI function.
Both receptacles should be tested at least once a month.

twist lock Dual voltage 120/240 vaC receptacles
There are three 120/240V, 50 amp auxiliary twist-lock (CS-
6369) receptacles (Figure 9) provided on the output
terminal panel. These receptacles can
only be accessed
when the voltage selector switch is placed in the
single-
phase 240/120 position.
Figure 9. 120/240V Twist-Lock Auxiliary
Receptacles
Each auxiliary receptacle is protected by a 50 amp circuit
breaker. These breakers are located directly above the
GFCI receptacles. Remember the load output (current) on
all three receptacles is dependent on the load requirements
of the
output terminal lugs.
Turn the
voltage regulator control knob (Figure 10) on
the control panel to obtain the desired voltage. Turning the
knob clockwise will
increase the voltage, turning the knob
counter-clockwise will
decrease the voltage.

The
Output Terminal Lugs are protected by a plastic
face plate cover (Figure 11). Un-screw the securing bolts
and lift the plastic terminal cover to gain access to the
terminal enclosure.
After the load wires have been securely attached to the
terminal lugs, reinstall the plastic face plate.
