1.4 Glossary
With respect to their use within this document and as they relate to transfer switch and controller operation, the following terminol- ogy is defined.
Available
A source is defined as “available” when it is within its undervolt- age setpoint range.
Connected
Connected is defined as when the input is shorted by an external contact or connection.
Failed or Fails
A source is defined as “failed” when it is outside of the applicable voltage ranges for the nominal voltage and for a time exceeding
0.5seconds after the time delay emergency fail (TDEF) time delays expires.
Failsafe
Failsafe is a feature that prevents disconnection from the only available power source and also forces a transfer or
Re-Transfer
Utility
Utility is the primary source (normal source, normal power source, or normal).
Generator
Generator is the secondary source (emergency source, emergency power source, emergency, standby, or backup source).
Utility: Failed or Fails
Utility is defined as “failed” when it is outside of its undervoltage setpoint range.
Generator: Failed or Fails
Generator is defined as “failed” when it is outside of its undervolt- age setpoint range for a time exceeding 0.5 seconds after the TDEF time delay expires.
Transfer
Transfer is defined as a change of the load connection from the Utility to the Generator power source.
Unconnected
Unconnected is defined as when the input is not shorted by an external contact or connection.
1.5 Functions/Features
The primary function of
The following is a list of the features of the
1.Time Delay Normal to Emergency (TDNE)
This feature provides a time delay when transferring from the Utility to the Generator power source. Timing begins when the Generator becomes available. It permits controlled trans- fer of the load circuit to the Generator.
Jumper selectable at 20 or 50 seconds. Default is 20 sec- onds.
3.Time Delay Emergency to Normal (TDEN)
This feature provides a time delay of the
Fixed setting of 10 seconds
5.Generator Monitoring and Protection
This feature provides monitoring and protection based on the Generator voltage setpoints. All feature 5 functions are fail- safe operations.
5J. All Phase Undervoltage Protection
Dropout: 168 Vac (70% of 240 Vac nominal)
Pickup: 192 Vac (80% of 240 Vac nominal)
7.Time Delay Emergency Fail (TDEF)
This feature provides a time delay that prevents a connected Generator source from being declared “failed” in order to override momentary generator fluctuations. If the Generator remains in the failed state then, after the TDEF timer expires, the transfer switch will proceed with the programmed sequence for
Fixed setting of 6 Seconds
12.Power Source Annunciation
This feature provides LEDs to indicate power source availabil- ity.
12G. Utility - Available
This feature provides a green LED that, when lit, indicates that the Utility is available.
12H. Generator - Available
This feature provides a red LED that, when lit, indicates that the Generator is available.
15M. Load Shed
Two sets of contacts are available and can be used to control large connected loads on the Generator (i.e. air conditioners, hot tubs, etc.). The contacts are rated for 250 Vac, 5 amps.
