Change voltage transformer primary taps settings as follows to match new system voltage on all multi-tap potential transformers (PTs). (Refer to wiring schematic diagram below).
-
Carefully remove the potential transformer high voltage side covers by prying up on the edge of the cover with a ¼” Flat Head Blade screwdriver and lifting off.
NOTE: You can also use your finger to pry up on the edge of the PT cover.
- Remove the screw on the PT Tap which is the correct voltage selected for the application (i.e. H2-208V, H3-240V, H4-480V or H5-600V)
- Remove the screw and red ring terminal connected to the incorrect (existing) PT voltage terminal. Install the screw and red ring terminal to the new selected PT Tap Terminal based on required voltage and tighten while supporting the terminal block. Make sure the ring terminal is not misaligned or the PT cover will not fit back on.
- Install the extra screw back onto the old PT location and tighten.
CAUTION: Confirm that PT screws are correctly tightened, and do not put
strain on the PT Tap wires.
- Replace the PT cover. PT covers should ‘snap’ in place, confirm they are installed correctly by gently “twisting” the PT cover. DO NOT use excessive force.
- Repeat the steps 1 to 8 for all Potential Transformers.
TSC 7320 Voltage Change Procedure
To change system voltage on the TSC 7320 controller, the transfer switch can
be energized or de-energized to change the system voltage. If the transfer
switch is energized, please ensure the mechanism is in the utility position,
and place the controller in “Stop” mode by pushing the red button in the lower
left corner. It is recommended to de-energize the transfer switch to mitigate
any hazardous conditions. Always proceed with caution and follow the steps
below to change the voltage.
NOTE: All system voltage changes are ONLY done via connecting a
designated wire to a different terminal on the TSC 7320 controller. All alarm
values are ONLY changed via software programming.
-
Locating the PIN: First find PINs 14 to 20 on the backside of the TSC 7320 controller. There will be a wire connected to PIN 14, and that wire will have a label specifying it is the voltage selection wire.
-
Removing the wire: Using a small flat head screwdriver, loosen the terminal screw for PIN 14, and remove the voltage selection wire out of PIN 14.
- Choosing voltage configuration: There are 5 separate inputs that dictate the different configurations, and they are listed in the table below. Select one of the options below based on the ATS requirements.
- Inserting the wire: Insert the voltage selection wire into the desired terminal and tighten the screw on the terminal. The terminals are rated for 4.5in-lbs of torque, do NOT over tighten the terminal screw. The photo below shows the 600V 3PH 4W configuration.
- Checking config: If the panel is not energized, turn on the power and energize the transfer switch. After the controller boots-up, use the left or right navigation keys to find the “Mains” page, and use the up and down navigation keys to find the “Active Config” page. If the controller is properly registering the changed input, the screen should display the desired configuration, and NOT the default 480V configuration. In this case, the 600V configuration has been selected.
- Complete: The voltage change procedure is now complete. If the voltage settings need to be adjusted from their default values, please refer to Section M(a) of this document for further details on entering the restricted area of the settings, and how to change values.
