4.3 Connection Steps

1. Identify Terminals: Locate the common power input (N1, L1), backup power input (N2, L2), and load output terminals (N, L).
2. Connect Common Power: Connect the neutral and live wires from your primary power source to the common power input terminals (N1, L1).
3. Connect Backup Power: Connect the neutral and live wires from your backup power source (e.g., generator, UPS) to the backup power input terminals (N2, L2).
4. Connect Load: Connect the neutral and live wires of your electrical load to the load output terminals (N, L).
5. Secure Connections: Ensure all wire connections are tight and secure. The terminal connection area is suitable for 1-25 mm² wires. Use an M5 screw with a torque of 2.5 N·m for wire connections.
6. Verify Wiring: Double-check all connections against the wiring diagram before applying power.

5. Operation

The G2R-63 ATS supports both automatic and manual operation modes.

5.1 Automatic Mode

In automatic mode, the switch will detect the presence of power from the primary source. If the primary source fails, it will automatically switch to the backup source. When the primary power is restored, the switch will revert to the primary source.

• Set the hand/automatic switch to the 'Automatic' position.
• The device will monitor both power sources and perform transfers as needed.

5.2 Manual Mode

Manual mode allows you to manually select the desired power source.

• Set the hand/automatic switch to the 'Manual' position.
• Use the manual operation handle (located on the right side) to physically switch between the common power source and the backup power source.
• Important: When performing a manual switch, ensure the handle is fully engaged in the desired position to prevent partial contact and potential damage.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your ATS.

• Periodic Inspection: Annually inspect the device for any signs of physical damage, loose connections, or overheating.
• Cleaning: Keep the device free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Connection Check: Periodically verify that all terminal connections remain tight.
• Professional Service: Any internal inspection or repair should only be performed by a qualified technician.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your G2R-63 ATS, consider the following basic troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Load:
  • Check if both primary and backup power sources are active.
  • Verify that the ATS is in the correct operating mode (Automatic or Manual).
  • Inspect all wiring connections for looseness or damage.
  • Check upstream circuit breakers for trips.
• Switch Not Transferring:
  • In automatic mode, ensure both power sources are correctly detected.
  • In manual mode, ensure the handle is fully engaged in the desired position.
  • If the issue persists, contact a qualified electrician for further diagnosis.
