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 7) 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 two 120/240V, 50 amp auxiliary twist-lock (CS-

6369) receptacles (Figure 8) 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.

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 both auxiliary receptacles is dependent on the load

requirements of the

output Terminal lugs.

Turn the

voltage regulator control knob (Figure 9) 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 10). Un-screw the securing

bolts (2) and raise the plastic face plate to gain access to

the output terminal lugs.
After the load wires have been securely attached to the

output terminal lugs, lower the plastic face plate, and

reinstall the retaining bolts.
