Part 1 GENERAL INFORMATION General Standby electric power generators will often run unattended for long periods of time. Such operating parameters as (a) battery voltage, (b) engine oil pres- sure, (c) engine temperature, (d) engine operating speed, and (e) engine cranking and startup are not monitored by an operator during automatic operation.
sEctioN 1.6 ENGiNE-GENErator ProtEctiVE DEVicEs oVercrank ShutdoWn This feature prevents the generator from damaging itself when it continually attempts to start and another problem, such as no fuel supply, prevents it from start- ing. The unit will crank and rest for a preset time limit. Then, it will stop cranking, and the LCD screen or the LED on the generator control panel will light indicating an overcrank failure.

sEctioN 2.1 DEscriPtioN & comPoNENts introduction The air-cooled, automatic standby system is an easy to install, fully enclosed and self-sufficient electric power system. It is designed especially for homeown- ers, but may be used in other applications as well. On occurrence of a utility power failure, this high performance system will (a) crank and start automati- cally, and (b) automatically transfer electrical loads to generator AC output.
Part 2 AC GENERATORS SLIP RINGS BEARING Figure 2. The 2-Pole Rotor Assembly 12-20 kW 8/10kW: Like the 12-20 kW rotor, the 8/10 kW 2-pole rotor must be operated at 3600 rpm to supply a 60 Hertz AC fre- quency. However, the 8/10kW rotor uses no slip rings. As the rotor rotates in the generator voltage is induced from the Excitation winding using a capacitor that is in turn excited by the rotor.
sEctioN 2.1 DEscriPtioN & comPoNENts BruSh holder and BruSheS (12-20 kW) The brush holder is retained to the rear bearing car- rier by means of two #10-32 x 9/16 Taptite screws. A positive (+) and a negative (-) brush are retained in the brush holder, with the positive (+) brush riding on the slip ring nearest the rotor bearing.
Part 2 AC GENERATORS rotor reSidual maGnetiSm The generator revolving field (rotor) may be consid- ered to be a permanent magnet. Some “residual” magnetism is always present in the rotor. This residual magnetism is sufficient to induce a voltage into the stator AC power windings that is approximately 2-12 volts AC.
sEctioN 2.2 oPEratioNal aNalYsis operation (8/10 kW) STARTUP: When the engine is started, residual magnetism from the rotor induces a voltage into (a) the stator AC power windings, and (b) the stator excitation or DPE windings. The capacitor on the DPE winding will be charged and then will discharge causing a voltage to be induced back into the rotor.

sEctioN 3.1 DEscriPtioN & comPoNENts General The “W/V-Type” transfer switch is rated 100 amps at 250 volts maximum. It is available in 2-pole configura- tion only and, for that reason, is usable with 1-phase systems only. Transfer switches do not have an intelligence sys- tem of their own.
Part 3 TRANSFER SWITCH tranSFer mechaniSm The 2-pole transfer mechanism consists of a pair of moveable LOAD contacts, a pair of stationary UTILITY contacts, and a pair of stationary STANDBY contacts. The load contacts can be connected to the utility contacts by a utility closing coil; or to the standby contacts by a standby closing coil.
sEctioN 3.1 DEscriPtioN & comPoNENts c. When de-energized, the relay’s normally open contacts are open and its normally-closed contacts are closed. d. The normally-closed relay contacts will deliver utility source power to the utility closing circuit of the transfer mechanism. e.

sEctioN 3.2 oPEratioNal aNalYsis Figure 3 is a schematic representation of the transfer switch with utility source power available. The circuit condition may be briefly described as follows: • Utility source voltage is available to terminal lugs N1 and N2 of the transfer mechanism, transfer switch is in the UTILITY position and source voltage is available to T1, T2 and customer load.
Part 3 TRANSFER SWITCH If utility source voltage should drop below a preset value, the generator circuit board will sense the dropout. The circuit board will then initiate generator cranking and startup after a time delay circuit times out. Figure 4 is a schematic representation of the transfer switch with generator power available, waiting to transfer. •...

Part 4 DC CONTROL • Printed circuit board action delivers 12 volts DC to the fuel solenoids (FS1 & FS2), via Wire 14. The fuel solenoids energize open and fuel is available to the engine. Wire 14 supplies power to the choke solenoid (CS). Circuit board action grounds Wire 90, energizing the choke solenoid cyclically during cranking and continuously while running.
sEctioN 4.2 oPEratioNal aNalYsis With the fuel solenoids open and ignition occurring, the engine starts. Engine startup and running may be briefly described as follows: • Voltage pulses from the ignition magnetos are delivered to the circuit board via Wire 18. Once the circuit board determines that the engine is running, the circuit board (a) terminates cranking, and (b) terminates the choke solenoid (CS), and (c) turns on an “engine warm-up timer”.
Page 113
Part 4 DC CONTROL • The “engine warm-up timer” will run for about 5 seconds. When this timer finishes timing, board action will initiate transfer to the STANDBY power source. As shown in Figure 4 (below), the timer is still running and transfer has not yet occurred.

Initial transfer to the STANDBY power supply may be briefly described as follows: •...
Page 115
Part 4 DC CONTROL • When the circuit board’s “engine warm-up timer” times out, circuit board action completes the Wire 23 circuit to ground. The transfer relay then energizes and its normally open contacts close. • Standby power is now delivered to the standby closing coil (C2), via Wires E1/E2, the normally open transfer relay contacts, Wire 205, limit switch XB1, Wire B, and a bridge rectifier.

Part 4 DC CONTROL • The utility closing coil (C1) energizes and moves the main current carrying contacts to their NEUTRAL position. The main contacts move to an over center position past NEUTRAL and spring force closes them to their UTILITY side. LOAD terminals are now powered by the UTILITY source. •...
sEctioN 4.2 oPEratioNal aNalYsis Following retransfer back to the utility source, an “engine cool-down timer” on the circuit board starts timing. When that timer has timed out (approximately one minute), circuit board action will de-energize the circuit board’s run relay. The following events will then occur: •...
