2 – Voltage Checks
First check nameplate on transfer switch; rated voltage
must be the same as normal and emergency line voltages.
Verify that the feeders have been
connected to the proper lugs.
Use extreme caution when using a meter
to measure voltages in the following
steps. Do not touch power terminals;
shock, burns, or death could result !
Perform steps 1 through 6 at the right. Observe the status
lights. See Figure 1–5.

Black circle means light is on.
❍
White circle means light is off.
* If necessary, adjust voltage regulator on the generator
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The
Automatic Transfer Switch will respond only to the rated
voltage specified on the Transfer Switch nameplate.
1
Close the normal source circuit
breaker. The

lights should
come on.

2
Use an accurate voltmeter to
check phase to phase and
phase to neutral voltages pres-
ent at the transfer switch normal
source terminals.
3
Close the emergency source
circuit breaker. (Start generator,
if necessary.) The
Emergency
Source Accepted
light should
come on.

4
Use an accurate voltmeter to
check phase to phase and
phase to neutral voltages pres-
ent at the transfer switch emer-
gency source terminals.*
5
Use a phase rotation meter to
check phase rotation of emer-
gency source; it must be the
same as the normal source.

Shut down the engine–genera-
tor, if applicable. The
Emergen-
cy Source Accepted
light should
go off. Then put the starting
control selector switch (on the
generator set) in the
automatic
position. Close enclosure door.
