OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS

This "Operational Analysis" is intended to familiarize the service technician with the operation of the DC con-

essential to sound and logical troubleshooting. The DC control system illustrations on the following pages include
a "V-Type" prepackaged transfer switch.
See Figure 1, below. The circuit condition with the AUTO-OFF-MANUAL switch set to AUTO and with "Utility"
