PowerShelter III is currently shipping fully assembled and ready to drop on your pad.
If the sound attenuated option is ordered the hoods are shipped inside for attachment in the field.
Electric connection is usually made using one of three methods:
* direct burial of UF cable with conduit stub-up inside enclosure, terminating in junction box
with SOOW pig-tail for plugging into generator outlet
* mount weatherproof outlet on outside of enclosure with SOOW pig-tail inside for plugging
into generator outlet
* cut a notch in pad under front door and temporarily lay SOOW cord on ground through notch
and plug into generator outlet
DISCLAIMER
We have designed this product with safety in mind. However,
whenever fuel is used to operate an engine generator there is always a risk due to fire,
exhaust gases and electric shock. This enclosure will not completely eliminate those
risks. If a fire develops, metal enclosures such as this product will not contribute to the spread
of the fire.
WARNING -- failure to
follow the directions for construction and use of this product can cause serious injury to
persons and property. Read all directions fully before installing this
product and use only as directed. We DO NOT recommend that this
kit be installed in any space that is part of a dwelling or attached to a
dwelling.
LOCATION
If you need to prepare the mounting pad before delivery view the pad layout here
and locate the pad as follows:
* within easy wiring distance to your transfer switch
* away from bedrooms and other rooms where engine noise could be annoying
* at least 5 feet from any building opening such as windows, doors,
vents, soffit vents, etc.
* at least 5 feet from structures having combustible walls
* at least 5 feet from combustible material
* at least 5 feet clearance to any overhead structure, overhang, or tree
* not under a deck
* where exhaust cannot accumulate in any nearby occupied area
* allows space to open front door and to move generator in and out
* meets any additional requirements of your local codes and Fire Marshal
Request our document on Generator Placement which we will send you by email if
you will be installing a pad before delivery of the PowerShelter III.
