Figure 6-1. Control Wiring Torque Specifications
NOTE: To separate low voltage from high voltage wires, unless NEC Section 300.3(c)(1) requirements are met, run 2-
wire start, N1, N2, and T1 wires through wire shielding provided (see Subsection 2.4 —Parts Shipped Loose).
NOTE: Regardless of whether unit is running or not, keep T1 connected and energized with 120 VAC to keep battery
charged.
NOTE: Supplying 240 volts to N1 and N2 on EcoGen is only for the Generac Cold Weather Kit.
NOTE: The single pole breaker used for T1 may be removed if a #14 jumper wire is installed from N2 to T1 (factory
side).
