O&M Manual for the Eaton ATC-100 

Automatic Transfer Switch Controller

5.3  ATC-100 Replacement

Follow these procedural steps to replace the ATC-100.

Step 1:  

Turn off the control power at the main disconnect or iso-

lation switch of the control power supply.  If the switch 

is not located within view from the ATC-100, lock it out 

to guard against other personnel accidentally turning it 

on.

Step 2:  

Verify that all “foreign” power sources wired to the 

ATC-100 are de-energized.  These foreign power 

sources may also be present on some of the terminal 

blocks.

Step 3:  

Before disconnecting any wires from the unit, make sure 

they are individually identified to assure that reconnec-

tion can be correctly performed.  Make a sketch to help 

with the task of terminal and wire identification.

Step 4:  

Remove all wires and disconnect the plug-type connec-

tors.

Step 5:  

Remove the four (4) mounting screws, located on the 

four corners, that hold the unit and trim plate against 

the door or panel.  These are accessed from the front of 

the unit.  Support the unit and remove the two center 

screws.

Step 6:  

Remove the unit from the door or panel.  Set the original 

mounting screws aside for later use.

Step 7:  

Align the unit with the opening in the door or panel.

Step 8:  

Using the original mounting hardware, secure the 

replacement unit to the door or panel.

Step 9:  

Using the sketch mentioned in Step 3, re-connect each 

wire at the correct terminal and make sure each is 

secure.  Make certain that each harness plug is securely 

seated.

Step 10: 

Restore control power to the unit.

5.4  Maintenance and Care

The ATC-100 is designed to be a self-contained and maintenance-

free unit.  The printed circuit board is conformally coated at the 

factory.  The ATC-100 is intended for service by factory-trained 

personnel only.

CAUTION

SUPPORT THE ATC-100 FROM THE REAR WHEN THE SCREWS ARE 

LOOSENED OR REMOVED IN STEP 5.  WITHOUT SUCH SUPPORT, 

THE UNIT COULD FALL OR THE PANEL COULD BE DAMAGED.
