SECTION 3 BYPASSING & ISOLATING

3---1

BYPASSING THE ATS*

This procedure explains how to Bypass the closed

automatic transfer switch contacts. Bypassing is required

before the ATS can be tested or isolated. The Bypass

Handle must be in the

OPEN

position (green indicator)

and the Isolation Handle must be in the

CLOSED

position (window). See Figures 3–1, 3–2, and 3–3.

You can only bypass to the same source

that the Transfer Switch is connected.

Solenoid interlock prevents incorrect operation.

1. Observe which

Transfer Switch Connected To

light is

on (

Normal

or

Emergency)

on the door. This is the

position of the automatic transfer switch.

2. Bypass to the same source as connected to transfer

switch as follows (select Normal or Emergency).

To Bypass Normal

push in handle

all the way & turn it clockwise.*

To Bypass Emergency

pull out han-

dle all the way & turn it clockwise.*

Indicator shows:

OPEN when the

ATS is not bypassed.

Indicator shows:

yellow

EMERGENCY CLOSED

when ATS is bypassed to Emergency

or

yellow

NORMAL CLOSED when

ATS is bypassed to Normal Source.
