Shutting Generator Down While
Under Load
IMPORTANT NOTE: To turn the generator off during
utility outages to perform maintenance, or conserve
fuel, follow these important steps:
To turn the generator off (while running in AUTO and
Online):
1. Turn the main utility disconnect OFF.
2. Turn the main line circuit breaker (MLCB) on the
generator to OFF (OPEN).
3. Allow the generator to run at least one minute to
cool down.
4. Turn the generator OFF.
NOTE: If turning the unit off longer than 24 hours, see
generator manual for procedures to disconnect the
battery negative cable (–). This will prevent long term
discharge of the battery.
To turn the generator back ON:
1. Connect the battery negative cable per generator
manual instructions, if previously disconnected.
2. Put the generator into AUTO and allow it to start
and warm-up for a few minutes.
3. Set the MLCB on the generator to on.
The system will now be operating in automatic mode.
The main utility disconnect can be turned ON (CLOSED).
NOTE: To shut the unit off, this complete process must
be repeated.
