Mount transfer switch enclosure in desired position using installer-provided fasteners through the four (4)
mounting holes in back of enclosure. Re-install interior assembly into enclosure (be sure not to pinch any wires
between the enclosure and interior assembly) by hooking the top of the interior assembly deadfront over the
studs on the inside of the enclosure and securing the interior assembly to the enclosure with the two screws
removed in Step 4. You are now ready to connect the transfer switch wires to the desired circuit inside the load
center.

a wire connector.
9. Use wire connectors (installer-provided) to make these connections:
a. Connect the GREEN (ground) wire pulled into the enclosure with the GREEN (ground) pigtail attached to
the interior assembly,
b. Connect the UTIL wire(s) pulled into the enclosure to the RED lead(s) marked UTIL on the interior assem-
bly and
c. Connect the LOAD wire(s) pulled into the enclosure to the BLACK lead(s) marked LOAD on the interior
assembly.
10. Fold wires and re-install interior assembly into enclosure (be sure not to pinch any wires between the enclo-
sure and interior assembly) by hooking the top of the interior assembly deadfront over the studs on the inside
of the enclosure and secure the interior assembly to the enclosure with the two screws removed in Step 3.
