RECONNECTING AN OLDER 13KW GENERAC GENERATOR TO ITS NEW TRANSFER SWITCH

THIS IS AN OLDER 13KW GENERAC AUTOMATIC STANDBY GENERATOR THAT GOT REPLACED BY A NEWER GENERAC. ITS ORIGINAL TRANSFER SWITCH REMAINING BEHIND WITH THE NEW MODEL GENERATOR.
THIS OLDER MODEL GENERATOR WAS PURCHASED BY THIS OWNER AND HAD TO BE ATTACHED TO THE NEWER ESSENTIAL CIRCUITS TANSFER SWITCH.
IN THE INSTALLATION I INSTALLED LARGER POWER CONDUCTORS SO THAT A LARGER GENERATOR COULD BE INSTALLED AT SOME FUTURE TIME. I ALSO INSTALLED EXTRA CONTROL WIRES WHICH A NEWER MODEL WILL NEED.
IN THE EXPLANATION OF HOW "N1" AND "N2" ARE USED AT THE TWO SIDED TRANSFORMER YOU NEED TO BE AWARE THAT AS SOON AS THE "N1" AND "N2" FUSES ARE INSTALLED IN THE TRANSFER SWITCH - THE BATTERY CARGER IS "ON". SO THOSE BATTERY CABLES SHOULD ALREADY BE ON THE BATTERY OR THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE END PROTECTED FROM TOUCHING ANYTHING.
THE OTHER HALF OF THE TWO SIDED TRANSFORMER PROVIDES A LOW POWER UTILITY SENSING CIRCUIT FOR THE GENERATOR TO MONITOR.
ME. IM JUST MAINTAINING A SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT. GENERATOR IN "OFF" POSITION WITH THE 15A STARTER FUSE PULLED/MISSING. NO VOLTAGES COMING FROM THE HOUSE WHILE I CONNECT THE WIRING.
THE BATTERY CABLES LANDED ON THE BATTERY FOR WHEN I INSTALL THE "N1" AND "N2" FUSES WHICH WILL POWER UP THE "TRICKLE CHARGER".
I MAY HAVE INSTALLED ONE OTHER GENERATOR BEFORE THIS ONE.
I INSTALLED A BRIGGS & STRATTON ON MY OWN HOUSE AFTER THE ICE STORM OF 98 BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T FIND A GAS STATION WITH WORKING PUMPS FOR A PORTABLE GENERATOR. (PLUS, IT WAS A LOT OF WORK HOOKING ONE UP SO THAT IT WOULDN'T BACKFEED THE POWER LINES. AND MANY WERE STOLEN DURING THAT OUTAGE.)
