SECTION 2 TESTING & SERVICE

TRANSFER TEST REPLACEMENT PARTS

Test the Automatic Transfer Switch portion of the 7000 Series 7ADTB at least once a month. This procedure checks the electrical operation of the Transfer Switch and Controller. Put the engine–generator starting control (at the engine–generator set) in automatic mode.

In the following test the generator will start, the load will be transferred to the Emergency source, then back to the Normal source. An interruption to the load will occur, un- less the the Transfer Switch contacts are bypassed before the test. See pages 3–1 through 3–4 for bypassing & iso- lating instructions if no interruption of load is required.

Be sure to close the enclosure door

before proceeding to prevent personal injury

in case of electrical system fault.

Perform the five–stepElectrical Operation – Transfer Test procedure on page 1–4.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Reasonable care in preventive maintenance will insure high reliability and long life for the 7000 Series 7ADTB. An annual preventive maintenance program is recom- mended.

Checklist for Yearly Inspection

Hazardous voltage capable of causing shock,

burns, or death is used in this switch.

Deenergize both Normal – Emergency power

sources before performing inspections!

❐Clean the 7ADTB enclosure.

Brush and vacuum away any excessive dust accumu- lation. Remove any moisture with a clean cloth.

❐Check the transfer switch contacts.

Bypass, isolate, and withdraw the transfer switch. Then remove the transfer switch interphase barriers and check the condition of the contacts. Replace con- tacts when pitted or worn excessively. Reinstall the interphase barriers carefully. See page 3–4.

❐Maintain transfer switch lubrication.

If switch is subjected to severe dust or abnormal operating conditions, renew factory lubrication on all movements and linkages. Relubricate solenoid operator if TS coil is replaced. Don’t use oil; order lubrication kit 75-100.

❐Check all cable connections & retighten them.

Replacement parts are available in kit form. When or- dering parts provide the Serial No., Bill of Material No. (BOM), and Catalog No. from the transfer switch name- plate. Contact your local ASCO Power Technologies Sales Office or ASI:

DISCONNECTING THE CONTROLLER

The harness disconnect plugs are furnished for repair purposes only and should not have to be unplugged. If the controller must be isolated, follow these steps:

Bypass–Isolation Switch is energized! Do not touch isolation contact fingers; shock, burns, or death could result!

Disconnecting the Plugs

1.Bypass and Isolate the Automatic Transfer Switch.

2.Open the upper enclosure door.

3.Separate the two quick disconnect plugs by squeez- ing the latches. Do not pull on the harness wires.

Reconnecting the Plugs

1.The ATS should be still bypassed and isolated.

2.The two harness plugs and sockets are keyed. Care- fully align the plugs with the sockets and press straight in until the latches click.

3.Close the enclosure doors.

4.Follow Return to Service instructions on page 3–5.

MANUAL LOAD TRANSFER

This procedure manually transfers load to other source if the Transfer Switch or Controller are out of service.

Close enclosure doors to prevent personal injury in case of electrical system fault.

1.Bypass the connected ACTB source. Turn Bypass Han- dle to EMERGENCY or NORMAL (see page 3–2).

2.Isolate to Test. Turn the Isolation Handle to TEST position (see page 3–3).

3.Turn the Bypass Handle to OPEN, then to the other source (see page 3–1). The load will be interrupted.

4.Turn the Isolation Handle clockwise to the CONN [connected] position (see page 3–4).
