Move the selector switch on the engine generator set to
the “AUTOMATIC” position. Next move the selector switch
on the A.T.S. panel to the “START” position. The unit will
go into a 3 to 10 second start delay and then start up. If it
fails to start at this time, check your DC interconnection
wiring. When the selector switch on the A.T.S. is moved to
the “DISABLE” position the unit will go into a cool down
period and then shut off. As long as line power is still
applied to the transfer switch during this test period the
A.T.S. will not transfer the load to the generator.
Next you need to test the complete system. To accom-
plish this you will have to fail the incoming line power to
the A.T.S. panel. First move both selector switches to the
automatic position. Then fail the incoming power. All the
loads connected to the A.T.S. should now be dead. The
engine generator set will go into a 3 to 10 second start
delay. At the end of the start delay the unit will start up. As
soon as the engine generator set reaches operating
speed the generator side contactor will close and the
load will be applied to the engine generator.
Restoring the line power will cause the generator side
contactor in the A.T.S. to open. The line side contactor will
close as soon as the generator side contactor clears the
mechanical interlock and closes the electrical interlock.
These interlocks ensure that you get a clean ‘break
before make’ action in the transfer switch.
The restoration of line power also sends a stop signal
to the engine generator set. This stop signal will activate
a cool down timer circuit. The engine generator will shut
down 90 seconds later.
This completes your installation and unit testing.
ALWAYS leave the system in automatic mode unless
servicing the unit. For automatic operation, keep both the
generator set and transfer selector switches in the
“AUTOMATIC” position.
