2 – Voltage Checks
First check nameplate on transfer switch; rated voltage
must be the same as normal and emergency line
voltages.
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.
O
Black circle means light is on.
P
White circle means light is off.
* If necessary, adjust voltage regulator on the
generator according to the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations. 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
Normal Transfer
Switch Position and the Normal
Source Accepted lights should
come on.
Source Accepted
Normal
Emergency
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
Emergency
Source Accepted light should
come on.
Source Accepted
Normal
Emergency
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.

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.
