SECTION 1 INSTALLATION
ASCO 7000 Series Automatic Delayed–Transition
Transfer & Bypass–Isolation Switches (7ADTBs) are factory wired and tested. Field installation requires mounting and connection of service cables, and auxiliary control circuits (if required).
Remove the Shipping Skid
Open the front door and remove the four lag screws (2 in front, 2 in rear) securing enclosure to the shipping skid.
Testing Power Conductors
Do not connect the power conductors to the transfer switch until they are tested. Installing power cables in conduit, cable troughs and ceiling-suspended hangers often requires considerable force. The pulling of cables can damage insulation and stretch or break the conductor’s strands. For this reason, after the cables are pulled into position, and before they are connected, they should be tested to verify that they are not defective or have been damaged during installation.
Supporting Foundation
The supporting foundation for the enclosure must be level and straight. Refer to the applicable enclosure outline drawing included with the switch for all mounting details including door opening space.
If bottom cable entry is used, the foundation must be prepared so that the conduit stubs are located correctly.
Refer to the enclosure outline drawing for specified area and location. Provide cable bending space and clearance to live metal parts. When a concrete floor is poured, use interlocking conduit spacer caps or a wood or metal template to maintain proper conduit alignment.
Protect the switch from construction grit and metal chips to prevent malfunction or shortened life of the 7ADTB switch.
Connecting Power Conductors
After the power cables have been tested, connect them to the appropriate terminal lugs on the bypass switch as shown on the wiring diagram provided with the switch.
Make sure the lugs provided are suitable for use with the cables being installed. Standard terminal lugs are solderless screw type and will accept the wire sizes listed on the drawings provided with the 7ADTB. Be careful when stripping insulation from the cables; avoid nicking or ringing the conductor. Remove surface oxides from cables by cleaning with a wire brush. When aluminum cable is used, apply joint compound to conductors.
Tighten cable lugs to the torque specified on rating label.
Mounting
Refer to the applicable enclosure outline drawing furnished with this switch and mount the automatic transfer switch according to details and instructions shown on diagram.
Line Connections
Refer to the Wiring Diagram provided with the switch.
All wiring must be made in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes.
Do not remove the interphase barriers from the transfer switch. Always protect the transfer switch, bypass switch, and isolation contacts and mechanisms from construction grit and metal chips when cabling.
Controller Ground
A grounding wire must be connected to the controller’s lower left mounting stud. Because the controller is mounted on the enclosure door, a conductive strap must be used between the enclosure and the door. This connection provides proper grounding which does not rely upon the door hinges.
Harnesses
The transfer switch is connected to the left side of the controller by a plug–in harness (two plugs).
De–energize the conductors before making any line or auxiliary circuitry connections. Be sure that Normal and Emergency line connections are in proper phase rotation. Place engine generator starting control in the OFF position. Make sure engine generator is not in operation.

5. Observe which Transfer Switch Connected To light is on (Normal or Emergency) on the door. This is the position of the Transfer Switch. If it is not in the same position as the Bypass Handle change the position of the Transfer Switch as follows:
To change the position of transfer switch
Operate to NORMAL Operate to EMERGENCY
Turn Transfer Control switch to Retransfer
Delay Bypass.
Turn Transfer Control switch to Transfer Test
(hold 15 seconds).*
Connected To Normal
light should come on.
Connected To Emergency
light should comes on.
* If Feature 2B time delay is used, there will be a delay before transfer to Emergency.
NOTE
: With Normal available, the automatic transfer switch will not stay in the emergency position unless
Feature 3A time delay is used (at least 30 seconds).
BYPASSING & ISOLATING
(continued)
Do not close the isolation contacts unless the Transfer Switch (ATS) and Bypass
Switch are in the same position!
6. When the transfer switch is in the same position as the Bypass Switch handle, continue turning the
Isolation Handle clockwise (about 8 turns) until the window shows CONN (connected).

BYPASSING & ISOLATING
(continued)
RETURN TO SERVICE continued*
This procedure explains how to return the Bypass Switch
Handle to the OPEN position. The Bypass Handle must be in the CLOSED position (yellow indicator on NOR-
MAL or EMERGENCY) and the Isolation Handle must be in the CONN position (window). See Figures 3–20,
3–21, and 3–22.
Window indicator shows yellow when ATS is bypassed to
Emergency.
Window indicator shows green when the ATS is not bypassed.
You can only bypass to the same source that the ATS is connected. Solenoid interlock prevents incorrect operation.
1 Observe which Bypass Switch Position indicator is yellow (NORMAL or EMERGENCY) at the Bypass
Switch Handle. This indicates the source connected to the load.
2 Un–Bypass to same source as the Bypass Switch
Position as follows (select Normal or Emergency).
To Un–Bypass Normal Source*
(Load connected to Normal Source)
The Transfer Switch Connected To Normal light is on and Transfer Switch Connected To Emergency light is off.
Window indicator shows yellow when ATS is bypassed to
Normal.
Figure 3–20. Bypass Handle and position indicators.
To Un–Bypass Emergency Source*
(Load connected to Emergency Source)
The Transfer Switch Connected To Emergency light is on and Transfer Switch Connected To Normal light is off.
Turn the handle clockwise.*
Turn* the Bypass Handle clockwise until the Bypass
Switch Position shows OPEN (green window indicator).
The Bypassed to Normal light should go off and the Not
In Automatic light should go off.
