Emergency Bypass Load Controller
Initial Test
Initial testing of the EREB should be done with the
Remote Loop In
and
Remote Loop Out
jumper installed on the EREB-AD and the blue loop
uncut on the EREB-AP.
1. Turn On the circuit breaker in the emergency panel for the controlled
circuit. The Status LED on the EREB shows red. With only the
emergency circuit On (normal power should be Off), the emergency
lighting should be activated.
2. Temporarily disconnect and cap the wire lead connected to the
Normal Switch Sense
terminal on the EREB. This disables the normal
control function and allows exclusive testing of the emergency On
functionality.
3. Turn On the circuit breaker in the normal panel for the controlled
circuit. The Status LED on the EREB shows green, indicating that
normal power is present and emergency lighting is not required.
4. Confirm the automatic emergency On functionality by turning Off the
circuit breaker in the normal panel. The connected emergency
lighting should immediately turn On again and the Status LED on the
EREB shows red.
5. With the normal circuit breaker secured Off, reconnect the
Normal
Switch Sense
wire to the terminal.
6. Turn On the normal circuit breaker. The EREB should now behave as
described in
.
Note:
If you are installing a remote activation input to the EREB,
see
Remote Activation Input on page 4
for the EREB-AP or
Activation Input on the previous page
for the EREB-AD.
Manual Switch Test
The EREB features a button to manually switch the load from normal to
emergency power for test purposes.
1. Press and hold the red
[Test]
button on the front of the device.
2. Verify the emergency relay closes. This is apparent when the
emergency loads turn on according to your installation.
3. Release the button to return to normal operation.
