    What to do if ABB Switch ATS will not transfer to SOURCE 1?
    • K
      kwilsonAug 19, 2025
      If the ABB Switch ATS fails to transfer to SOURCE 1, check the DWTimer, TTimer, and DTTimer settings to ensure their timing cycles are complete. Also, ensure that the voltage or frequency of SOURCE 1 is within acceptable parameters by checking the utility and utility breakers. Lastly, verify that the power supply connector is properly plugged in.

    How to fix ABB Zenith ZTSCT ATS that will not transfer to SOURCE 2?
    • C
      Casey JohnsonAug 27, 2025
      If the ABB Switch ATS won't transfer to SOURCE 2, start by checking if the voltage or frequency of SOURCE 2 is within acceptable parameters. You should check the Engine Start Connections, Generator Breaker, Generator Output, and Engine Control Switch. Also, ensure the power supply connector is plugged in. Lastly, verify the WTimer setting to ensure the timing cycle is complete.
