2 – Voltage Checks

First check nameplate on transfer switch; rated voltage

must be the same as normal and emergency line voltages.

Verify that the feeders have been

connected to the proper lugs.

!

Use extreme caution when using a meter

to measure voltages in the following

steps. Do not touch power terminals;

shock, burns, or death could result !

Perform steps 1 through 6 at the right. Observe the status

lights. See Figure 1–5.

Black circle means light is on.

White circle means light is off.

* If necessary, adjust voltage regulator on the generator
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The

Automatic Transfer Switch will respond only to the rated

voltage specified on the Transfer Switch nameplate.

1

Close the normal source circuit

breaker. The

Transfer Switch

Connected To Normal and the

Normal Source Available lights

should come on.

2

Use an accurate voltmeter to

check phase to phase and

phase to neutral voltages pres-

ent at the transfer switch normal

source terminals.

3

Close the emergency source

circuit breaker. (Start generator,

if necessary.) The

Transfer

Switch Connected To Normal

and the

Emergency Source

Available lights should come on.

4

Use an accurate voltmeter to

check phase to phase and

phase to neutral voltages pres-

ent at the transfer switch emer-

gency source terminals.*

5

Use a phase rotation meter to

check phase rotation of emer-

gency source; it must be the

same as the normal source.

6

Shut down the engine–genera-

tor, if applicable. The

Emergen-

cy Source Accepted light should

go off. Then put the starting

control selector switch (on the

generator set) in the

automatic

position. Close enclosure door.
