Disconnect all loads from transfer switch until all
1.
voltage checks and phase rotation checks have
been completed.
Set the Maintenance Disconnect switch (inside
2.
transfer switch enclosure) to MANUAL.
Check the transfer switch data label for rated volt-
3.
age. Verify voltage is compatible with normal and
