If the Un - - Ux taps are to the left of E2 with no taps to the 
right of E2, and the polarity mark is on one of the U taps, 
specify Utility Pol: NORM (see Figure D.1).

If the Un - - Ux taps are to the right of the E2, and the 
polarity mark is on the E2 tap, specify Utility Pol: REV 
(see Figure D.2).

regulators (ANSI type A) with forced air  
cooling 
For these regulators, the Utility winding not only provides 
power to the controller — it also provides power for the 
forced air fan(s). The E2 tap is located between the Un - - 
Ux terminals on the regulator’s nameplate schematic. The 
U5 tap is normally used for fan voltage and can be either to 
the left or to the right of E2. To determine whether the 
polarity is ‘normal’ or ‘reverse’, you must examine both the 
schematic diagram and the connection table on the 
nameplate. From the connection table, determine the tap to 
which U2 should be connected. 
 
•  If the tap to which U2 is connected and the polarity 
mark are to the left of E2 on the schematic, set Utility-
Pol:NORM. 
 
•  If the tap to which U2 is connected is to the right of E2 
on the schematic, set UtilityPol:REV. 
 
Examples 
For both of the examples on the next page, use the 
nameplate connection table shown in Table D.3: 
 
 
 
 
From the table, the system load voltage is 7200 volts; therefore, U2 would be connected to U6. Now check the connection 
diagram:
