ATC-300/900 40-400A (480/600Vac) 

3-Postion Contactor Based Transfer Switch

7.

Time Delay Emergency Fail (TDEF)

This feature provides a time delay that prevents a con-

nected Source 2 power source from being declared “Failed” 

in order to override momentary generator fluctuations.  If 

the Source 2 power source remains in the failed state then, 

0.5 seconds after the TDEF timer expires, the transfer 

switch will proceed with the programmed sequence for 

retransfer.  This time delay is only implemented when the 

Source 2 power source is a generator.

Adjustable 0 - 6 Seconds

8.

Time Delay Bypass Pushbutton

This feature provides a way (by pushing the Help and Step 

pushbutton simultaneously) to bypass the TDNE (Feature 1) 

and/or TDEN (Feature 2) time delays.  The Time Delay 

Bypass function, when activated by pushing the Help and 

Step pushbutton simultaneously, will reduce any or all of 

the programmed time delay to zero.  

8C. Bypass TDEN

This feature provides one set of pushbuttons to bypass the 

TDEN time delay.

8D. Bypass TDNE

This feature provides one set of pushbuttons to bypass the 

TDNE time delay.

12. Power Source Annunciation

This feature provides LEDs to give switch position and 

power source availability indications.

Switch Position

Provides LEDs to indicate the switch position

12C. Source 1 - Source Connected

This feature provides a green LED that, when lit, indicates 

the load is connected to Source 1.

12D. Source 2 - Source Connected

This feature provides a red LED that, when lit, indicates the 

load is connected to Source 2.

Power Source Availability

Provides LEDs to indicate if a power source is available.  

LEDs may be integral or separate from the controller.

12G. Source 1 - Available

This feature provides a white LED that, when lit, indicates 

Source 1 is available.

12H. Source 2 - Available

This feature provides an amber LED that, when lit, indi-

cates Source 2 is available.

14. Relay Auxiliary Contacts

14G. Source 1 Present:

 Provides two (2) normally open and two 

(2) normally closed contacts.  The relay is energized when 

Source 1 is available.

14H. Source 2 Present:

 Provides two (2) normally open and two 

(2) normally closed contacts.  The relay is energized when 

Source 2 is available.

15. Switch Position Indication Contact

This feature provides a contact that indicates if the power 

switching device is in the “Open” or “Closed” position.

15E. Source 1 Position Indication Contact

This feature provides 1 dry form “C” contact that indicates 

the position of the Source 1 power switching device.

15F. Source 2 Position Indication Contact

This feature provides 1 dry form “C” contact that indicates 

the position of the Source 2 power switching device.

23.

Plant Exerciser (PE)

This feature provides a means for automatic testing of the 

engine generator set or standby power system.  All pro-

grammed time delays will be performed during plant exer-

ciser operations.

23K. Plant Exerciser Selectable – Disabled/1/7/14/28 Day Inter-

val

This feature provides for automatic test operation of the 

generator.  Available test cycles are daily, 7, 14, or 28 

days with duration equal to the programmed engine test 

time.

Programmable setpoints allow for selection of three test 

cycles:

Engine Start/Run Only (No Load);

Exercise with Load Transfer; or

Disabled

This is a “Failsafe” operation.

26.

Source 1 - Monitoring and Protection

This feature provides Source 1 monitoring and protection 

functions.  If the Source 1 power supply fails, then the 

Automatic Transfer Controller will begin the sequence of 

operations necessary to transfer the load circuit to the 

Source 2 power supply.  All Feature 26 monitoring and 

protection functions are Failsafe operations.

26D. Go to Source 2

This feature provides the capability for an external contact 

opening to initiate a load circuit transfer to the Source 2 

power source.  This includes starting the engine/generator, 

performing the programmed time delays, and the transfer 

operation.  Re-transfer will occur when the external con-

tact is closed or under a Failsafe condition.  

26H. Phase Reversal Protection

For a 3-phase wye source, this feature monitors the phase 

sequence of the sources.  If a source does not have the 

same ABC or CBA sequence as the phase reversal set-

point, the source will be considered “Unavailable”.

For a 3-phase delta source, this feature should be turned 

off via the PHASE REV setpoint.
