Quiz - Automatic Transfer Switches (ATL Series )

1. Final quiz.

Test your knowledge about the ATL series. Are you ready? Then start and don't worry about making mistakes, repeat the test as many times as you want.

Question Title

* 1. For each line the ATL 500 monitors the status of the voltage and the frequency to detect if the line is available and all the parameters are within the correct limits. Which ofhe following controls are performed?

minimum and maximum frequency.

phase sequence and phase loss

minimum and maximum voltage

voltage asymmetry

Question Title

* 2. In ATL800 and ATL900 two counters are used for maintanance puproses:

to count the number of maintenance operations

to monitor the working hours

to count the number of breaker operations

Question Title

* 3. The devices used for the changeover are:

motorizes changeover switches

contactors

motorized circuit breakers (MCCB, ACB)

Question Title

* 4. Definition of closed transition (close before open):

The load will be transferred without continuity of energy supply. For some instant the load it is disconnected completely from the energy sources.

The sources are synchronised (where possible) or spontaneous synchronisation will be expected within a limit time. The synchronisation thresholds (delta voltage, delta frequency, delta phase angle) are programmable. In presence of all synchronisation conditions the load will be transferred with closed transition and instantaneous parallel with continuity of power supply to the load.

In this case, the synchronisation conditions will be sought but transfer will occur in all cases with the open transition. In this case, the load is passed to a new source where the amplitude and phase of which is synchronised with the previous one but without continuity of power supply to the load.

Question Title

* 5. The ATL series devices can be used to switch between:

Utility-Utility (U-U): systems operating utility feeds on both ends

a three way system including all above: these systems combine two utility sources and one backup generator for sensitive areas (e.g. jails and military bases). These are mostly referred as dual stand by systems having two backup and over all three power sources.

Generator-Generator (G-G): systems that use multiple generators as the prime power source

Utility-Generator (U-G): facilities that have both utility and income power and uses generators for backup only

Question Title

* 6. ATL 500 is provided with two potentiometers on the back, one for each line
(LINE 1 and LINE 2), which can be used for the following functions:

setting of the tripping delays of the protection thresholds

adjusting the room temperature

setting of the line presence delays (default setting)

setting the communication channel (Ethernet, RS485, ...)

Question Title

* 7. ATL900 is an automatic transfer switch controllers that cover advanced and high end applications on power transfer through three power sources. How many tie-brakers are managed?

three tie-breakers

two tie-breakers

one tie-breaker
