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).
