Instrument Panel Wiring
For starting and stopping the generator at a remote iocation, three similar switches are used.
The PREHEAT and START switches are connected in parallel with the engine mounted panel's
switches and serve the same functions. The STOP switch is connected in series with the local
panel's STOP switch and serves the same function. The generator may be stopped and started
from either engine mounted or remote positions.

Figure 4.3 illustrates the DC wifIng connections to be made between the engine mounted
control panel and a remote Start/Stop Panel.
Refer to the control circuit wiring diagram #036411 when installing the remote Start/Stop panel.
Refer to the DC wire sIzIng chart (figure 4.4) on page 31 when selecting the wire size to be
used between the engine control panel and the remote Start/Stop Panel. Use the wire color
coded as shown to comply with ABYC standards and be sure to select the wire size dependent
upon distance run and amperage flow through the wire during start.
