Figure 1 — Auxiliary contacts
3.2 Auxiliary Contacts for Remote Monitoring
The operation of the Alpha MBS is "make-before-break". The auxiliary contacts are available to generate
an alarm if a "caught in transition" condition occurs.
The auxiliary switch contacts are located below TB3 in the interior of the Alpha MBS – see Figure 1.
Table A shows the condition of these contacts for all possible states of the bypass switch.
The System Schematic is shown in Chapter 6 on page 14.
