Completing the Installation

When you have wired all the load circuits in the transfer switch, only the white neutral wire

and the green ground wire remain.

1. Insert the white neutral wire into an unused opening in the neutral bar in the load

center and tighten the screw (Figure 4).

2. Insert the green ground wire into an unused opening in the ground bar, if existing, and

tighten the screw. If no ground bar exists, insert the green wire into an unused hole in

the neutral bar and tighten the screw.

3. Replace the cover to the load center.

4 Fill in the chart on the transfer switch to identify your emergency circuits and

corresponding circuit numbers in the load center.

5 Turn on all branch circuit breakers and the main breaker that were turned off for

installation in the load center.

6 Turn all switches on the transfer switch to the LINE position.

Installation is now complete.

Operating Instructions

Using your Reliance Transfer Switch and Your Portable Generator

You want your generator to be ready when you need it. Therefore, it is important to

perform the following steps at least once a month to keep the generator in peak running

condition.

• Start and run your generator under load regularly.

• Keep the fuel tank filled with fresh fuel.

It is not necessary to turn off any circuits in the load center when supplying generator

power with the transfer switch, even when the utility power is operating normally. The

double-throw action of these switches prevents feeding generator power to the utility and,

conversely, prevents feeding utility power to the generator.

Transferring from Utility Power to Generator Power

1. Plug the female connector of the generator power cord into the power inlet box or the

power inlet on the transfer switch. All circuit selector switches on the transfer switch

should be in the LINE or OFF position.

2. Insert the male plug of the power cord into the outlet on the generator.

3. Start the generator outdoors. Follow the procedures described in the generator

owner's manual furnished by the manufacturer of the generator.

Warning: Do not operate a generator in an enclosed area.

Do not operate a generator where the exhaust

fumes can accumulate in an enclosed area.
