First check nameplate on transfer switch; ra ted voltage
mustbethesameasnormalandemergencylinevoltages.
Use extreme caution when using a m eter 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.
O Black circle means light is on.
P 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.
Also see page 4–1 for the HI–LOW voltage adjust
setting in the controller. The LOW setting shifts all
voltage settings down 4. 2%; for example, 240 V to 230 V.
