Transfer Test

Both normal and emergency sources must be available and

the emergency source generator (if used) must be capable
of being started in this procedure.
Perform steps 1 through 8 at the right. Observe the status

lights. See Figure 1–6.

White circle means light is off.

NOTE: If Motor Load Transfer feature is

activated, then transfer may not occur

immediately after the respective time
delays. Transfer will only occur when the

phase relationship between sources is

correct.
