Testing Additional Alarms After Replacing Rectifiers
Step Action
1
Turn OFF the ac circuit breaker of replaced rectifier. Verify 
that the AC and MIN alarm LEDs illuminate, the rectifier 
displays ACF, and the controller alarms screen indicates 
RECTIFIER FAIL : Gmm (SCF and Millennium controllers). 
2
Turn ON the ac circuit breaker of the replaced rectifier. Verify 
that the rectifier starts and the alarms retire.
3
OPTIONAL: Simulate a load circuit breaker alarm by 
shorting the alarm contacts on the circuit breakers or inserting 
an operated alarm fuse. For ED83143-30 G1-6 (101-106), 
add a jumper from the hot bus to the FAJ input signal on the 
associated BNL1 (P4-1) or BNL7 (P5-6) alarm card. Verify 
that the DIST and MAJ alarm LEDs illuminate and the 
controller alarms screen indicates EXTERNAL FUSE 
MAJOR (SCF and Millennium controllers).
Testing Rectifiers and Load Share in Bay Extensions
Step Action
1
Turn all rectifiers to STBY.
2
Connect a resistive load box (proper voltage) to the system’s 
positive and negative bus bars.
3
Verify that the system load is less than 50 amperes.
4
Increase the system load to 200 amperes.
5
Turn ON all the rectifiers; after approximately 60 seconds, 
verify that the load is divided equally among all the rectifiers 
(within 2 amperes).
6
Reduce the system load. Verify that the rectifiers continue to 
share the load.
7
Remove system load.
