3.2.2. AUTOMATIC PLANT EXERCISE TEST
Automatic Plant Exercise operation is dependent upon the type of Transfer Controller
as described below:
3.2.2.1.TSC 80 AUTOMATIC PLANT EXERCISE TEST
The TSC 80 controller has a fixed 30-minute/ 7-day weekly automatic plant
exercise program. The generator set will be exercised either “on or off” load
dependent upon the controller configuration (refer to section 4.1.4). To initiate a
30 minute /7 day weekly automatic plant exercise mode, press the
GENERATOR EXERCISE Mode pushbutton on the Lexan faceplate. Hold the
pushbutton on for approximately 5 seconds until the LED light above the
pushbutton changes state. Once the mode is initiated, the engine will
immediately start and transfer on load (i.e. if configured for On Load Test) once
nominal voltage and frequency levels have been obtained. The engine will
remain operating on load until the plant exercise time delay period of 30
minutes expires, then the load will re-transfer back to the utility supply. The
engine will be automatically re-tested on load every week (e.g.7 days) at the
same time of day.
NOTES
1. The load will automatically re-transfer to the utility supply
should the generator fail while in the test mode.
2. To bypass a 30-minute exercise run period, press and hold
the Exercise pushbutton on for 5 seconds until the LED remains
on.
The Generator Exercise LED light will operate as follows:
LED ON - Exercise Timer is initiated, the 7-day timer is active and the
generator is in the off state.
LED FLASHING - Exercise Timer is initiated, the 30 minute run timer is
active and the generator is running on loads.
LED OFF - Exercise Timer is not initiated and the 7-day timer is not
active.
