ZTSH Operation and Maintenance Manual (43R-1000)

Testing

A manual operator handle is provided with the transfer switch for maintenance purposes

only. Manual operation of the switch must be checked before it is operated electrically.

Both power sources

MUST

be disconnected before manual operation of the switch. Insert

the handle and operate the transfer switch between the Normal and Emergency positions.

The transfer switch should operate smoothly without binding. Return the switch to the

Normal position, remove the handle, and return it to the holder provided.

After completing the inspection, cleaning and servicing of the transfer switch, reinstall the

switch cover, and close and lock the cabinet door. Reclose the circuit breakers feeding the

utility and generator sources to the switch.

Initiate the electrical transfer test by activating the TS test switch. P timer will time out and the

microcontroller will send an engine start signal. When the W time has elapsed, the switch will

complete its transfer by closing into the Emergency source.

Deactivating the test switch will start retransfer to the Normal source. The switch will complete

its retransfer to Normal after the time delay of the T timer. The U engine overrun timer allows

the engine generator to run unloaded for a preset cool down period.

Maintenance and Testing

NOTICE

A periodic test of the transfer switch under load conditions is recommended to insure proper operation.
