  • Generac Power Systems ECOGEN SERIES, 3 The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the frame and external • electrically conductive parts of the generator to be connected to an approved earth ground. Local electrical codes also may require proper grounding of the generator electrical system. After installing this home standby electrical system, the genera-• tor may crank and start at any time without warning. When this occurs, load circuits are transferred to the STANDBY (genera- tor) power source. To prevent possible injury if such a start and transfer occur, always set the generator’s AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to its OFF position before working on equipment and remove the 7.5A

  • Generac Power Systems ECOGEN SERIES, n Only qualified electricians or contractors should attempt such installations, which must comply strictly with applicable codes, stan- dards and regulations. 1.1 UNPACKING/INSPECTION After unpacking, carefully inspect the contents for damage. This standby generator set is ready for installation with a factory • supplied and pre-mounted base pad and has a weather protec- tive enclosure that is intended for outdoor installation only.  If this generator is used to power electrical load circuits normally powered by a utility power source, it is required by code to install a trans- fer switch. The transfer switch must effective
