4.3.1 TapChngr (Tap Changer Type)
The TapChngr data item defines the tap changer mecha-
nism type. Tap changer mechanisms vary among regulat-
ing device suppliers. This data item allows the MJ-X
configured specifically for the connected tap changer
device.
4.3.2 Type (Regulator Type)
The Type data item defines the step-voltage regulator
type. The designations "straight" (ANSI Type: A) and
"inverted" (ANSI Type: B) are frequently used to denote
the difference. See Figures 4.1 to 4.3 for examples.
Since November, 1995, the regulator type is identified by
either an ANSI Type A or B designation. Older nameplates
did not include this information and the type must be
determined from the schematic diagram on the regulator
nameplate.
"STRAIGHT" design characteristics: (See Figure 4.2)
• The source (' S' ) bushing is connected to the tap
changer reversing switch and to one end of the main
winding.
• The load (' L' ) bushing is connected via the preventive
autotransformer to the moving contacts of the
tapchanger.
• The Potential Transformer (PT) is connected between
the "L" and "SL" bushings. The PT secondary leads
are labeled P3, P4, P5, ... etc.
• The utility (tertiary) winding leads are labeled U3, U4,
U5, ... etc.
"INVERTED" design characteristics: (See Figures 4.1 and
4.3)
• The source (' S' ) bushing is connected via the preven-
tive autotransformer to the moving contacts of the
tap changer.
• The load (' L' ) bushing is connected to the tap changer
reversing switch and to one end of the main winding.
• Utility (tertiary) winding leads are labeled P3, P4,
P5, ... etc.
• An Inverted design regulator does not have a Poten-
tial Transformer unless equipped for reverse power
flow. (See Figure 4.1)
4.3.3 System (Regulator Installation)
The System data item defines whether the regulator is
Delta or Wye-connected. See Appendix D, section D.1 for
guidance in determining which regulator is leading and
which is lagging (for Delta-configured regulators).

4.3.4 DeltaPwr (Delta Power)
The Delta Pwr item defines the wiring arrangement for
Delta-connected systems. Specify either Open or closed.

4.3.5 Utility Pol (Utility Polarity)
The Utility Pol data item allows you to correct for polarity
differences between the CT winding and the Utility (Ter-
tiary) winding.
To define the Utility Polarity, view Utility Pol; then,
1. If you have a single-phase Inverted-type regulator,
specify Utility Pol:Norm.
2. If you have a single-phase Straight-type regulator, see
Appendix D, section D.3.
4.3.6 U2 PT (Utility (tertiary) Winding)
The U2 Potential Transformer ratios are used by the con-
trol program to scale the voltages supplied by the regula-
tor to the basis voltage (nominal 115, 120, or 125 V).
Many regulators are built with transformer turns ratios that
do not provide the exact basis voltage (115, 120, or 125 V)
to the controller. Previous generation controllers include a
tapped sensing transformer to correct the voltage. Instead
of using a sensing transformer, the MJ-X
voltage mathematically, using the U2 PT turns ratio. Deter-
mine the turns ratio for the regulator from the regulator' s
nameplate.
The U2 PT data item defines the turns ratio of the winding
that appears at the U2 terminal on the Polarized Discon-
nect Switch (PDS).
To define the turns ratio, you must first determine which
column in the nameplate describes the "U2" secondary
for a given primary voltage. The U2 pin is attached to the
regulator Utility Winding. The U2 lead provides the power
to the controller, and is always present. It is often labeled
Motor Conn. or Control & Motor on the nameplate. See
Figure 4.1 to 4.3 for examples.
View U2 PT, then specify the turns ratio exactly as it is
specified on the regulator nameplate (e.g., 7620:121). The
microprocessor will correct the reference voltage to the
basis voltage (115, 120, or 125 V).
4.3.7 P2 PT (Potential Transformer)
The P2 PT data item defines the turns ratio of the Potential
Transformer appearing at the P2 terminal on the Polarized
Disconnect Switch (PDS).
Note: For Inverted-type regulators with no source-
side potential transformer, no signal connects
to P2, so the P2 PT: specification is not
required.
Many regulators are built with transformer turns ratios that
do not provide the exact basis voltage (115, 120, or 125 V)
to the controller. Previous generation controllers include a
