See the appropriate RTSN or RTSE Installation/Wiring Diagram
in the "Interconnection Diagrams" section for connections.
3.1.4 OPERATIONAL TESTING
1.
If already connected, disconnect the battery in the generator.
Remove the negative cable first followed by the positive cable.
Take care not to short the cables together.
2.
Ensure power is applied to the battery charger input.
3.
Connect a volt meter across the battery leads. The voltage
reading should be between 12.8VDC and 13.8VDC (Figure
3.12).
4.
If the voltage is within range installation of the battery charger
is complete. If the voltage is not within range verify all wiring
and sizing and retest.
5.
Re-connect the battery cables. Positive cable first followed by
the negative cable.

GENREADY INSTALLATION
See the GenReady Installation/Wiring Diagram in the
"Interconnection Diagrams" section for connections.
4.1.1 WIRING AND CONNECTIONS AT THE
TRANSFER SWITCH
1.
Install a 15A breaker in the bottom portion of the load center
(Purchased or supplied separately). The breaker must be on a
generator backed-up circuit or the battery in the generator will
not maintain its charge during extended run periods (Figure
4.1).
2.
Run the 120VAC hot wire and neutral wires to the generator.
3.
Run the low voltage wires, 15B, 0, and 23 to the generator
(Figure 4.2)
