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.

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.

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.
