Functional Test

Read all instructions on the Wiring Diagrams and labels affixed to the ATB. Note the control features that are provided and review their operation before proceeding.

After installing the ATB check the following:

S Bypass Handle should be in the BYPASS POS position (closed on normal)

S Isolation contacts should be in the TEST position (see pages 1-3 and 1-4).

S Automatic Transfer Switch should be in the N (normal) position

If handles are not in correct positions, follow instructions for Bypassing and Isolating the automatic transfer switch

in Section 3. Do not force the handles. Electrical

interlocks prevent a wrong sequence of operation.

1 – Voltage Checks

First check nameplate on transfer switch; rated voltage must be the same as normal and emergency line voltages.

Close the normal source circuit breaker. The Transfer Switch

1Connected To Normal and the Normal Source Accepted lights should come on.

Use an accurate voltmeter to check phase to phase and

2phase to neutral voltages pres- ent at the transfer switch normal source terminals.

Close the emergency source circuit breaker. (Start generator,

3if necessary.) The Transfer Switch Connected To Normal & Emergency Source Accepted lights should come on.

Use an accurate voltmeter to check phase to phase and

4phase to neutral voltages pres- ent at the transfer switch emer- gency source terminals.*

Use a phase rotation meter to

A B C

Use extreme caution when using a meter to measure voltages. Do not touch power termi- nals; shock, burns, or death could result !

Perform steps 1–6 at the right. Observe the status lights. See Figures 1–8 and 1–11.

Black square means light is on.

White square means light is off.

*If necessary, adjust voltage regulator on generator per the manufacturer’s recommendations. The ATB will respond only to rated voltage specified on the nameplate.

Now continue to 2 – Manual Operation Test, next page.

5 check phase rotation of emer- gency source; it must be the same as the normal source.

Shut down the engine–genera- tor, if applicable. The Emergen- cy Source Accepted light should

6go off. Then put the starting control selector switch (on the generator set) in the automatic position. Close enclosure door.
