c.If any of the voltages tested are incorrect, check for loose or bro- ken leads between the test points and the main transformer.

d.If ALL the voltages tested are incorrect or missing, go to Step 12.

12.Test for correct nameplate input volt- age between the H1 lead at the ON/OFF POWER SWITCH to H2 or H3 at the reconnect panel. Voltage tested will vary depending on Input Voltage Connection. See wiring dia- gram for test point locations.

a.If the voltage test is incorrect,

-check for loose or broken leads between the reconnect panel and the ON/OFF POWER SWITCH.

-test the ON/OFF POWER SWITCH for proper operation.
