Fixed and Drawout Magnum Transfer Switches

In addition, a fixed switching device does not have a standard fea-

ture to hold the switching device in a “trip-free” position.

Magnum fixed switching device terminals have holes for making

bolted horizontal primary bus connections. Adapters are available

for making vertical primary bus connections. Secondary connec-

tions can be made through standard terminal blocks or a special

connector compatible with the drawout switching device’s type

secondary connector. Both secondary connection devices are

mounted at the top front of the switching device.

The Magnum fixed switching devices have two mounting feet,

one on each side, to permit the switching device to be securely

mounted to the transfer switch frame. Each mounting foot has

two slotted mounting holes to facilitate mounting.

1.4 Transfer Switch Catalog Number Identification

Transfer switch equipment catalog numbers provide a significant

amount of relevant information that pertains to a particular piece

of equipment. The catalog number identification table (Table 3)

provides the required interpretation information. An example for

an open transition switch is offered to initially simplify the pro-

cess.
Example: Catalog Number (circled numbers correspond to position

headings in Table 3).

The catalog number ATVIMGB33200XRU describes an ATS with

the switching devices mounted vertically in the enclosure. The

intelligence, represented by the ATC-400/ATC-600/ATC-800, is a

microprocessor-based logic package. The Magnum Breaker is used

as the switching device and is a 3-pole molded case breaker for

each source. The continuous current rating of this equipment is

3200 A and is applicable at 480/277 Vac, 60 Hz. The transfer

switch equipment is enclosed in a NEMA 3R enclosure and is

listed for Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Canadian Standards

Association (CSA) applications.
