  4. When Normal power (N) is restored, the switch will automatically transfer the load back to N after a stabilization delay.

5.2 Eskuzko modua

Manual mode allows for direct control over which power source is connected to the load.

  1. Set the main selector switch to "Manual".
  2. Use the rotary handle to manually switch between the Normal (N) and Reserve (R) positions.
  3. The "O" position on the selector switch indicates that neither power source is connected to the load.
