An overcurrent in excess of 480 amperes. detected
by a current sensorin any phaseof the preferred source
will “set up” the lockout circuit in the AT-12 control.
The overcurrent-lockout indicating lampwill light.
If the overcurrent is due to a fault that is cleared
by the source-side protective device, the prolonged loss
of source voltage will cause the preferred-sourceMini-
Rupter to open, and the lockout circuit will prevent
the alternate-source Mini-Rupter fromclosing into the
fault. (Conversely, if the load is being served from the
alternate source, theprolonged loss of source voltage
will cause the alternate-source switch to open, and the
lockout circuitwill prevent the preferred-source switch
from closing intothefaultwhenpreferred-source
voltage becomes available.) After the fault has been
located and repaired, the manual/automatic operation

If the overcurrent is due to a fault that is cleared
by feeder fuses, no switching will occur since loss of
source voltage is not of sufficient duration to initiate
opening of the sourceMini-Rupter serving the load. In
this case, although the fault current initially sets up
thelockoutcircuitandtheovercurrent-lockout
indicating lamp lights, the subsequent return of normal
source voltage actuates the overcurrent-lockout-reset
timer. After a preset period of time, the lockout circuit
will automatically reset, theAT-12 control will restore
to its previous “normal” state, and the lockout indicating
lamp will extinguish.
Remote Indication
Inclusion of the optional remote indication feature is
signified bythe additionof the suffix “-Y4” to the catalog
number. This option includes isolated contacts wired,
through an output receptacle and plug, to a terminal
blockforuser’sexternalconnectiontoremote
indicating devices. Isolated contacts are provided for
remotely monitoring the presence of preferred- and
alternate-source voltage; the position of the manual/
automatic operation selector switch; the status of the
automatic-transfer “ready” indicatinglamp;and, if
applicable, the statusof the overcurrent-lockout circuit.
Remote indicating devices and their control power are
to be provided by the user.

To avoid damage to the S&C VoltageSensors or S&C
Voltage Limiters, the input plug must be transferred
to the shorting receptacle whenever theplug is
removed fromtheinputreceptacle, suchasfor
dielectric testing. It is also important that the input
plugbeconnectedtotheshortingreceptacle
whenever thepreferred-sourceplug or alternate-
source plug isremoved from its associated recep-
tacle. If the input plug is left unconnected or is not
placed on the shorting receptacle when the source
plugsare unconnected,the secondary burden is
removed from the voltage sensors. Prolonged oper-
ation of unburdened voltagesensorsmayresult in
damage to the voltage limiters orvoltagesensors,
or both.
The instructions which follow presuppose that the
pad-mounted gear has been installed in accordance
with the applicable S&C instruction sheet, the input
plug is in the input receptacle, and the unit is in all
respects ready for operation, with high-voltage circuits
energized at nominal vo1tage.A
Note thattheadjustmentandtestingprocedures

energized usingthe S&C Test Accessoryand an external
single-phase120-voltacsource.Thispreliminary
checkout of source-transfer operation of the AT-I2
control allows the user to expedite full service once
high voltage is available. See Appendix A for details.

voltages for the preferred source and alternate source
as follows:
1. For each phase of the sources, insert the meter’s
test probes into the appropriate test jacks, loosen
the locking nut on the associated adjustment screw
and turn the screw, using a screwdriver, to obtain
a 2.5-volt reading.
NOTE: If by independent measurement, the system
voltage is determined to be higher or lower than
thenominalsystemvoltage,thecorrectsignal-
voltage setting to use can be calculated as follows:

I f the actual and nominal system voltages differ
by 5% or more, the adjusted setting must be used
for proper performanceof the AT-12 control.
After making the adjustment, tighten the lockingnut
fingertight.Overtightening of thelockingnut may
damage theadjustment screw.
2. Use the appropriate open/close pushbuttonsclose to

 IADJUSTMENTS AND PROGRAMMING - Continued
If other than the factory-set time delays are desired,
the settings on these timers can be changedby means
of their adjustment dials. To change the settings on
the timers, perform Steps4 through 6, as appropriate.
Otherwise, proceed to Step7.
Step 4
Adjust the “62P” and “ 6 2 A loss-of-source timers (field
adjustable, Vi to10seconds)forthepreferredand
alternate sources for the desired time delays. The loss-
of-source timers must be set to initiate opening of the
source Mini-RupterSwitch only after a timedelay
sufficient to allow the source-side circuit breaker to
makethedesirednumber of reclosing attempts-
verifylng that the loss of voltage is not transient. I n
any mse, the time-deluy setting must be longer thun
the longest total clearing time of any of the load-side
feeder fuses ut the anticipated fault-current lmek-
including those which could result from transformer
secondary-side faults.
Step 5
Adjust the “2P” return-of-source timer(field adjustable,
!h to 15 minutes) for the period considered sufficient
to establish that return of preferred-source voltage is
not temporary.
Step 6
Adjustthe “62LR” overcurrent-lockout-resettimer
(field adjustable, 1 to 30 seconds),if‘ furnished, for the
time delay desired before the lockout circuit automat-
ically resets. (This circuit is “set up”by an overcurrent
of sufficient magnitude.)
The overcurrent-lockout-reset timer shouldsetbefor
a period of time sufficient to establish that the return
of source voltage is not temporary. In any case, the
time-&lay setting must be longer than the longest total
clearing time of any of the load-side feeder fuses at
the anticipated fault-current levels-including those
which could result from transformer secondary-side
faults.
Step 7
The actual loss-of-source, return-of-source, and over-

Installing and Closing the Fuse
Before proceeding with the instructions on installing
and closing the fuse,A refer to “WARNING” on page 2.
Use an S&C Grappler (S&C Catalog Number 4423)
attached to and in line with a suitable universal pole*+
to perform the procedures listed below:
1. Open the appropriate fuse-compartment door and
secure it with the door holder. See Figure 13. On
double-door models, the adjacent compartment door
should be closed and latched (or bolted) to minimize
exposure to high voltage.
2. If optional inner barrier panels (Catalog Number
Suffix “-G7”) are furnished, loosen the pentahead
bolts and remove the panel.
If optional dual-purpose front barriers (Catalog
Number Suffix “-G2”) are furnished, remove only the
barrier associated with the fuse mounting into which
the fuse is to be installed. See Figure 14. Then insert
the barrier into the “slide-in” position using the
Grappler as illustrated in Figure 16. Note that the
barrier is supported on the Grappler prongs and
held there by engagement of the lifting ring with
the Grappler cone.

3. For all fuses except 25-kv Fault Fite-r Electronic
Power Fuses, install a fuse into its hinge as follows:
a. Position the Grappler cone in the fuse pull ring
and cradle the fuse in the Grappler prongs. See
Figure 17.
b. Grasp the universal pole with both hands
(approximately 2 feet apart), with one hand at
the opposite end of the pole from the Grappler.
c. Lift the fuse and lower it into its hinge. See
Figure 18. Make sure that the fuse is securely
seated in the hinge, then disengage the Grappler
from the fuse.
A Although the operations as described in this section often refer simply
to “fuses,” the procedures apply to S&C Type SML-20 and SML-4Z Powcl
Fuses, S&C Fault Fiter Electronic Power Fuses, and current-limiting fuses
used in Fault Fiter Mountings with Uni-Rupter.
* Use a universal pole 1% inches in diameter and at least. 4 feet long
(S&C Catalog Number 4451R2-E, or equal) for 14.4.kv gear; or at least
6 feet long (S&C Catalog Number 4452R2-E, or equal) for 25-kv gear.
l If the enclosure is furnished with a base spacer or terminator pedestal
(or is attached to a higher than normal mounting pad), it may be desirable,
for easier handling at the increased height, to reposition the Grappler
on the universal pole at a favorable angle.

SWITCHING WITH UNI-RUPTER
Make sure that the fuse is kept away from the contacts
of the Uni-Rupter during installation of the fuse into
its hinge to prevent reestablishment of the circuit.
If optional dual-purpose front barriers are furnished,
it is recommended that the associated barrier be
placed in the “slide-in” position whenever a fuse is
open or is being removed from or installed into its
hinge.
4. For 25.kv Fault Filer Electronic Power Fuses,
de-energize, test, and properly ground the mounting
in accordance with local operating practices, and
then install the fuse in its mounting by hand using
suitable protective equipment.

5. If an optional dual-purpose front barrier is in the
“slide-in” position, use the Grappler to remove it. See
Figure 19.
Since there is always the possibility of closing the
fuse into a faulted circuit, and since the closing
operation is completely operator dependent (with no
assist from a quick-make mechanism), the closing
operation must be accomplished with a swift,
unhesitating stroke while turning one’s face away.
When so operated, the Uni-Rupter associated with
the fuse is capable of closing into a fault current once
or twice as specified in Appendix C, remaining
operable and able to carry and interrupt rafecf current.

6. With the Grappler prongs pointed downward, insert
the longest prong into the pull ring of the fuse. See
Figure 15. Then with one’s face turned away, close
the fuse with a swift, unhesitating stroke. See Fig-
ure 20.
Release the Grappler from the pull ring. Use the
Grappler to push against the fuse to make sure that
complete fuse closure was attained.
A Note on Single-Pole Switching
In single-pole switching of ungrounded-primary
three-phase transformers or banks (or single-phase
transformers connected line-to-line), circuit connec-
tions or parameters may, in some cases, produce
excessive over-voltages. In particular, for the following
applications above 22 kv, single-pole switching by any
means-including Uni-Rupter-should be performed
only under the conditions stated in italics:
l Switching unloaded or lightly loaded delta-
connected or ungrounded-primary wye-wye con-
nected three-phase transformers or banks (or line-
to-line connected single-phase transformers), rated

IF OPERATOR STALLS. . .
The stored-energy operator’s quick-make quick-break
mechanism will stall in a partially discharged state if
the operator is inadvertently tripped while its associ-
ated Mini-Rupter Switch is prevented from closing by
any of the following conditions:
l Switch not completely coupled (or decoupled) to
switch operator.
l Switch blocked open by mechanical cable interlock
(applicable when that option, Catalog Number Suffix
“-C6,” is included).
l Switch blocked open by mechanical antiparalleling
(applicable when that option, Catalog Number Suffix
“X7,” is included).
l Switch locked open by key interlock (applicable when
that option, Catalog Number Suffix “C5,“is included).
l Switch blades blocked by insertion of the dual-
purpose front barrier in its “slide-in” position (appli-
cable when that option, Catalog Number Suffix “-Gl,”
is included).
To determine if the quick-make quick-break mech-
anism has stalled, observe the switch-position indicator
target. If the words “SWITCH OPEN” on the target
appear slightly off-center and one or more letters are
partially hidden from view in the target opening, then
the mechanism is in a stalled condition. See Figure 22.
Restore the stored-energy operator to a normal
latched-open condition after such an occurrence as
follows:

1. Make sure that the manual/automatic selector
switch is in the “MANUAL,” position.
To guard against handle kickback during perform-
ance of this step, do not release grip on handle until
latching has occurred.
Place the threaded end of the dual-purpose manual
handle in the center of the decoupler. See Figure
23. (The handle’s knurled knob performs no function
in this application.) While pivoting the handle, push
it in to engage the reverse-drive hub. Then rotate
the handle counterclockwise for the left-hand switch
(clockwise for the right-hand switch) to back drive
the switch and the quick-make quick-break mech-
anism-against the tension of the stored-energy
spring-until the mechanism latches in its open
position. A slight click may be heard when the
mechanism latches.
Verify that the latched-open condition has been
achieved by observing that the switch-position tar-
get reads “SWITCH OPEN” and the operator targets
read “OPERATOR IN SWITCH-OPEN POSITION” and
“OPERATOR CHARGED.”

Ideally, all adjustments and operational testing of the
S&C Type AT-12 Source-Transfer Control should be
deferreduntilthepad-mountedgear isenergized
because some adjustments cannot be made accurately
until high voltage is applied to the gear. However, the
user may wish to perform a preliminary checkout so

For this reason S&C an Test Accessory, Catalog Number

external single-phase 120-volt ac source.
If a preliminary checkout is to be performed, special

When the test accessory is used, the control power
available to supply the charging motor of the stored-
energy operators and to maintain the charge on the
solenoid-tripping capacitors is less than that available
during normal three-phase operation. As a result, the
time required f o r the motorsto charge the stored-energy

it may take as long as two minutes after the stored-
