Procedure

  1. Connect a voltmeter between terminals NA and EA on the transfer switch; set scale to at least twice the system phase-to-phase voltage.
  2. Manually start the generator set; after it reaches maximum output voltage the meter needle should sweep back and forth at a regular rate between 0 Volts and about twice the system voltage.
  3. Place the test switch to simulate normal source failure; transfer should occur when the meter indicates approximately 0 Volts.
  4. Place test switch in AUTOMATIC position; the load should retransfer back to normal after time delay when the meter reads approximately 0 Volts.
  5. Immediate retransfer may be accomplished by manually opening the generator set emergency source circuit breaker.
  6. Disconnect and remove the voltmeter.
