center in close proximity to the main distribution panel. The
transfer switch can be located to the left or right of the main
distribution panel. One (1) foot is the suggested distance. The
transfer switch may be located a different distance from the
main panel depending on available mounting area. Using the
two (2) foot conduit connected straight across to the main panel
is another option. Always adhere to local electrical codes during
installation. Hold transfer switch against the mounting surface.
Level the transfer switch and mark the mounting holes. Drill the
appropriate size pilot holes. Mount transfer switch with built-in
load center to mounting surface with appropriate fasteners.
