Before you start

  • Improper installation of CT's will cause a 335 Reverse Power shutdown error (non-parallel units only).

Procedure

  1. Orient the CT dot toward the generator (conventional current flowing into the dot); dot also indicates pin 1 of the CT.
  2. CT21 - U load leads (A phase); CT22 - V load leads (B phase); CT23 - W load leads (C phase).
  3. Route the appropriate leads through each CT: 6-lead gensets route generator output leads; 12-lead gensets route load wires.
  4. For 12 lead (reconnectable) gensets, connect CT secondary wire marked 1 to pin 1; secondary wire marked 2/3 to pin 2 for high voltage or pin 3 for low voltage.
  5. For 6 lead (non-reconnectable) gensets, connect lead from CT terminal #1 to metering circuitry and lead from CT terminal #2/3 to ground.
