The following checklist is designed for ENERGY MANAGEMENT CORP.(EMC) to assist you during the installation of the generator(s) and associated equipment. All categories MUST be completed prior to calling EMC for the start-up inspection. Please check over the list carefully, sign it, and return it to our office. EMC’s service department will contact you, once they receive the completed checklist, to schedule a start-up date. A technician will perform a start-up inspection in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations. If the EMC technician arrives on site and determines that this checklist was not followed, you will be charged for all necessary return trips ($400.00 minimum charge) or the time it takes to perform the corrections while the technician is on site ($75.00 per hour, 2 hour minimum).
Receipt of Goods: Most equipment is shipped from the manufacturer directly to the contractor. In those cases the manufacturer is the “shipper” and the receiving party is the “consignee.” If there are shortages or shipping damage, only the shipper and consignee are parties to the transaction. The consignee must file a claim with the “shipping agent” (i.e. trucking company, UPS) within 7 days. By law, thee consignee has only 7 days. ENERGY MANAGEMENT CORP cannot take any action, because we are not directly involved in the transaction. Therefore, PLEASE INSPECT ALL INCOMING ITEMS CAREFULLY! If you sign for an item and then cannot locate it, you will be charged for its replacement.

Accessibility : How close can the technician park to the generator?
[ ] Roof [ ] Ground [ ] Penthouse [ ] Parking Garage
Fuel System Installation: [ ] Diesel Fuel [ ] Gasoline [ ] Natural Gas [ ] LP Gas [ ] Main fuel tank filled [ ] Day tank filled [ ] Day tank pump & motor [ ] All fuel lines plumbed and connected electrically functional [ ] Flexible fuel line(s) connected at engine [ ] GAS SYSTEMS ONLY: Primary regulator adjusted to proper pressure 11 – 14 inches of water column It is the installer’s responsibility to properly size the piping and regulators. If there are any questions please call ENERGY MANAGEMENT CORP for assistance.
Electrical System Installation: [ ] Load wires pulled and properly terminated [ ] Start and remote annunciator wires pulled in a separate conduit from the AC wires (do not terminate, the start-up technician will terminate) [ ] 120vac circuit pulled for the battery charger/engine block heater [ ] 240vac circuit pulled for the engine block heater (if applicable) [ ] Two pairs of “shielded” cable pulled to the remote annunciator from the generator control panel (digital panels only) [ ] A ground wire must be connected to a ground rod driven into the earth. Most generator installations have AC load wires, AC power wires, and DC automatic start/stop wires. AC and DC wires are not compatible and should never be placed in the same conduit. This means that load wires and control wires CANNOT EVER be run in the same conduit. Always follow local codes and regulations when determining wire and conduit sizes. Failure to separate the AC and DC circuits will void the manufacturers warranty.

Placement & Ventilation: [ ] Radiator and/or air flow ducting in place and properly connected [ ] All fans and/or louvers in the air ducting system in place and functional [ ] Adequate space between the generator and surroundings (4 feet minimum) [ ] Generator in place and secured to the pad/floor as specified [ ] Accessory items in place and wired/plumbed as required [ ] Vibration isolators installed between the generator skid and the pad/floor All generators depend upon an adequate supply of cool air to keep from overheating. If the unit is installed in such a manner that it cannot draw fresh air across itself and through the radiator, it will overheat. Indoor installations can be especially difficult, although outdoor installations where the generator is placed near a wall or in an enclosed area can pose similar problems. The location of service points and wear items vary from model to model. Therefore it is important that enough room be left completely around the unit to allow for proper ventilation and also to allow a service technician access to perform maintenance. If the unit is housed, take into account that all doors must be able to be opened and/or removed. If vibration isolators are supplied, they are to be installed between the generator skid base and the pad/floor.
Exhaust System Installation: [ ] Flexible exhaust connector installed between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler without bends or kinks [ ] Muffler and exhaust piping installed and properly supported [ ] Wall thimbles in place where the exhaust piping extends through a wall or overhang [ ] Rain cap or other suitable device in place to keep moisture out of the exhaust system [ ] Exhaust piping free of unnecessary bends Mufflers and exhaust piping carry hot gases that are potentially fatal when not vented to the atmosphere. Exhaust piping gets extremely hot, so it should NOT be ran anywhere near ceiling mounted heat detectors, sprinkler heads, or anything else that is heat sensitive. All exhaust piping must be out of the way of personnel areas and free of any gaps or leaks. Also the exhaust cannot be terminated near an air vent or window where exhaust fumes may be drawn back into a building.
