INSTALLATION
The ASCO 7000 Series Automatic Transfer & Bypass–Isolation Switch (ATB) consists of an upper bypass–isolation switch, a lower transfer switch, a monitoring and transfer controller, and door–mounted controls. The ATB is factory wired and tested. Installation requires removal of the shipping skid then securing the enclosure to the supporting foundation.
Remove the Shipping Skid
Open the front lower door and remove the two front lag screws securing the enclosure to the wood skid. Next remove the rear lower panel and remove the two rear lag screws securing the enclosure to the wood skid.
Supporting Foundation and Mounting
The supporting foundation for the enclosure must be level and straight. Allow at least 35 inches in front of the enclosure for draw out of the Transfer Switch.
Refer to the enclosure outline drawing included with the 7000 Series ATB 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 appropriate enclosure outline drawing for specified cable entrance 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.
Mounting
Refer to the enclosure outline drawing furnished with this switch and mount the 7000 Series ATB according to the details and instructions shown on the drawing.
Remove Shipping Brackets / Angles from the Transfer Switch
Open the lower front door(s). The Transfer Switch carriage is secured to the frame for shipment. Remove the three or four shipping brackets or L– angles: (1 upper left, 1 upper right, and 2 lower).
To prevent serious damage, remove three or four shipping brackets or L–angles from the Transfer Switch carriage. Do not turn the Isolation Handle until they are removed!
remove 3 or 4 shipping brackets ( L–angles)
Figure 1. 600–3000 A remove shipping brackets.
remove 2 upper shipping brackets
remove 2 lower shipping brackets
Figure 2. 4000 A remove four shipping brackets.

Installation |
Installation Manual |
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.
Testing Power Conductors
Do not connect the power conductors to the ATB 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.
Protect the switch from construction grit and metal chips to prevent malfunction or shortened life of the ATB switch.
Connecting Power Conductors
A Wiring Diagram is furnished with the ATB. All wiring must be made in accordance with the local codes. 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 this ATB. Make sure that 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 ATB. Be careful when stripping insulation from conductors; avoid nicking or ringing the conductor. Remove surface oxides from conductors by cleaning with a wire brush. Follow conductor manufacturer’s instructions when aluminum conductor is used. Apply joint compound to conductor, then carefully wipe away excess compound. Tighten the cable lugs to the torque specified on the rating label.
Be sure that the Normal and Emergency power connections are in proper phase rotation.
Bus Connections
If bus connection is used, use SAE grade 5 hardware to connect bus to appropriate terminal plates on bypass switching device. Wipe off bus surfaces before they are joined. If bus is dirty, gently clean surfaces with a non-flammable solvent. Avoid touching cleaned surfaces.
Do not breathe cleaning solvent vapors.
Use SAE grade 5 hardware and tighten the bolted joints to the torque specified in Table A.
The reliability of the connection depends on how clean and how tight the joint is.

Harnesses
All internal connections are made at the factory. The bypass switch, transfer switch, and control panel are joined together by an interconnecting wire harness.
The disconnect plugs are already engaged on enclosed switches. For open–type switches, the plugs must be engaged after installation is completed. Align harness plugs with sockets in the control and push them together until they are secure.
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.
Engine Starting Contacts
and Auxiliary Circuits
The engine control contact signal connections and auxiliary circuits are located on terminal block TB as shown on the Wiring Diagram provided with the ATB. Connect the signal wires to the appropriate terminals.
