Configurations

The 100--120/200--240-volt configuration does not use
a jumper lead. If the unit was originally wired for straight
100--120 volt, 3 wire, remove the jumper lead (see

does not conform to NEC requirements for supplying a
200--240-volt load, even
mechanically attached together. Leads L1 and L2 are
for different phases; never connect them together.

10.1.3 200- -240-Volt Configurations

The 200--240-volt configuration does not use a jumper
lead. If the unit was originally wired for straight 100--120
volt, 3 wire, remove the jumper lead (see Figure 10-1 for
location).

10.2 12-Lead Reconnection

The following reconnection procedure details voltage
reconnections only. If the generator set requires
frequency changes, adjust the governor and voltage
regulator as described earlier in Section 7.5.
The following information illustrates the reconnection of
12-lead generator sets. In all cases, follow the National
Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines.
Reconnect the stator leads of the generator set to
change output phase or voltage. Refer to the following
procedure and connection schematics. Follow all safety
precautions at the front of this manual during
reconnection procedure.
NOTICE
Voltage reconnection. Affix a notice to the generator set after
reconnecting the set to a voltage different from the voltage on
the nameplate. Order voltage reconnection decal 246242
from an authorized service distributor/dealer.
Reconnection Procedure
1. Move the generator set start/stop switch to STOP
position.
2. Disconnect the engine starting battery, the
negative (--) lead first. Disconnect the power to the
battery charger, if equipped.
3. Use Figure 10-3 or Figure 10-4 to determine the
generator set voltage configuration.
