ATC-900 Magnum Tranfer Switch O & M Manual

Figure 39. Transfer from Normal Switching Device to Normal Bypass Switching Device, Steps 9-11.

9. Open the Source 2 Bypass switch.  The source 2 Bypass RED 

light will no longer be illuminated.

10. Move the generator selector switch to the AUTO position.
11. The Source 2 Switching device is now back in automatic 

operation.

7.3.3 Source 1 to Source 2 Bypass (Open Transition Only)

The Source 1 switching device can be isolated and bypassed to 

source 2 by the following sequence:

1. Move the generator selector switch to the RUN position 

because the load needs to be energized from the Source 2 

power source.

2. Make sure that the Source 2 power source is available.

3. Remove J7 Plug from ATC-900 controller.

4. Open and rack out the Source 1 switching device manually 

(see Section 6).  The Source 1 isolated BLUE light will illumi-

nate and Source 1 position energized GREEN LED will no lon-

ger be illuminated.

5. Close the Source 2 bypass switching device manually. The 

Source 2 bypass RED light will be illuminated.

6. Inspect and/or perform the needed maintenance on the 

Source 1 switching device.

7. Rack in the Source 1 switching device (see Section 6).  The 

Source 1 switching device will automatically recharge when it 

is in the CONNECT position.  The Source 1 isolated BLUE light 

will no longer be illuminated.

Note:

Source 1 switching device will not be closed with Source 2 bypass 

switching device closed due to mechanical interlock.

8. Reconnect J7 plug back onto the ATC-900 controller.

9. Open the Source 2 bypass switching device.  The Source 2 

bypass RED light will no longer be illuminated.

10. The Source 1 switching device should now automatically 

close and Source 1 position energized GREEN LED will be illu-

minated.

11. Move the generator selector switch to the AUTO position.

12. The Source 1 switching device is now back in automatic oper-

ation.

7.3.4 Source 2 to Source 1 Bypass (Open Transition Only)

The Source 2 switching device can be bypassed to source 1 by 

the following sequence:

Note:

This operation can be performed by programming Preferred 

Source=Source 2 inside the ATC-900 controller

1. Ensure that the Source 1 power is available since the load will 

be energized from the Source 1 power source.

2. Move the generator selector switch to the OFF position to 

avoid nuisance starting of the generator while work is being 

performed on the Source 2 switching device.

3. Remove J7 PLug from ATC-900 controller.

4. Open and rack out the Source 2 switching device manually 

(see Section 6). The source 2 isolated BLUE light will illumi-

nate and Source 2 position energized RED LED will no longer 

be illuminated.
