Contact Thomson Technology, to obtain applicable instruction manuals or if in doubt about

any matter relating to installation, operation or maintenance. Soft copy of the most current

version is available at www.thomsontechnology.com.

NOTE: All information contained in this manual is for reference only and is subject

to change without notice.

2. EQUIPMENT STORAGE

The following procedures are required for correct storage of the transfer switch prior to installation.

2.1. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

CAUTION!!!

Failure to store and operate equipment under the specified environmental conditions may

cause equipment damage and void warranty.

TS 840 TRANSFER SWITCH

PM057 REV 8 10/01/25 2Thomson Technology

2.1.1. EQUIPMENT STORAGE

The transfer switch shall be stored in an environment with a temperature range not

exceeding -4° to +158° Fahrenheit (-20°to +70° Celsius) and a humidity range not

exceeding 5%-95% non-condensing. Before storing, unpack sufficiently to check for

concealed damage. If concealed damage is found, notify the ATS supplier and the

Carrier immediately. Repack with the original, or equivalent packing materials.

Protect from physical damage. Do not stack. Store indoors in a clean, dry, well

ventilated area free of corrosive agents including fumes, salt and concrete/cement

dust. Apply heat as necessary to prevent condensation.

2.1.2. EQUIPMENT OPERATING

The transfer switch shall be operated in an environment with a temperature range

not exceeding +5° to +122° Fahrenheit (-15°to +50°Celsius) and a humidity range

not exceeding 5%-95% non-condensing.

3. NOTES TO INSTALLER

DANGER!!!!

Arc Flash and Shock Hazard. Will cause severe injury or death.

Do not open equipment until ALL power sources are disconnected

This equipment must be installed and serviced only by qualified electrical

personnel utilizing safe work practices and appropriate Personal Protective

Equipment (PPE). Failure to do so may cause personal injury or death

3.1. UPSTREAM CIRCUIT PROTECTIVE DEVICES/ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONS

To ensure satisfactory installation of this equipment be sure to observe "Cable Terminal

Information” regarding power cable connection tightness and "Requirements for Upstream

Circuit Protective Devices" located in this manual.

All mechanical and electrical connections must be checked for tightness prior to placing this

equipment in service to ensure proper operation and to validate applicable warranty

coverage.

TS 840 TRANSFER SWITCH

PM057 REV 8 10/01/25 3Thomson Technology

3.2. TRANSFER SWITCHES WITH INTEGRAL OVER CURRENT PROTECTION

For models of transfer switch with integral over current protection, the over current

protection must be set prior to operation. The equipment will be shipped from the factory

with a long-time current setting of 100% (of the equipment rating) and maximum short-

time/instantaneous current and time delay settings.

WARNING!

Do Not Energize this equipment until

device settings have been verified to

ensure proper system protection &

coordination. Failure to do so may

result in equipment failure.

Refer to Section 5.2.2 of this manual for additional information on operation of the Transfer

switch following an over current trip condition.

Refer to information supplied with the transfer switch documentation package for

adjustment procedures on the power switching units over current protection trip unit.

Contact the factory if any additional information is required.

3.3. SYSTEM PHASING-HIGH LEG DELTA SYSTEMS

For systems using high leg delta 240V 3 phase 4 wire systems, connection of supply

conductors must have the correct phasing as shown below.

WARNING

Failure to match correct system

phasing will result in serious damage

to the TSC 80 controller.

Where transfer switches are supplied without power isolation transformers (PT1 &

PT2) for ATS control logic it is essential that the orientation of phase conductors of

TS 840 TRANSFER SWITCH

PM057 REV 8 10/01/25 5Thomson Technology

the supply source be arranged such that the phase of highest potential with respect

to ground is not connected to the power supply inputs to the controller (A Phase for

both supplies). Failure to do so will result in equipment damage.

Per NEC Article 384-3 (f) “The B phase shall be that phase having the higher

voltage to ground on a 3-phase, 4-wire delta connected systems.”

3.4. REMOTE START CONTACT FIELD WIRING

As a minimum, the remote engine start control field wiring shall conform to the local

regulatory authority on electrical installations. Field wiring of a remote start contact

from a transfer switch to a control panel should conform to the following guidelines

to avoid possible controller malfunction and/or damage.

3.5.1. Minimum #14 AWG (2.5mm2) wire size shall be used for distances up to

100ft (30m)1). For distances exceeding 100 ft. (30m) consult Thomson

Technology

3.5.2. Remote start contact wires should be run in a separate conduit.

3.5.3. Avoid wiring near AC power cables to prevent pick-up of induced voltages.

3.5.4. An interposing relay may be required if field-wiring distance is excessively

long (i.e. greater than 100 feet (30m)) and/or if a remote contact has a

resistance of greater than 5.0 ohms.

3.5.5. The remote start contact must be voltage free (i.e. dry contact). The use of a

“powered” contact will damage the transfer controller.

3.5. DIELECTRIC TESTING

Do not perform any high voltage dielectric testing on the transfer switch with the TSC

80 controller connected into the circuit as serious damage will occur to the controller.

All AC control fuses and control circuit isolation plugs connected to the TSC 80 must

be removed if high voltage dielectric testing is performed on the transfer switch.

3.6. INSTALLATION OF OPEN TYPE TRANSFER SWITCHES

Please refer to the factory for additional information.

3.7. MOUNTING OF ENCLOSED TRANSFER SWITCHES

Model TS840, TS870 and TS880 Automatic Transfer Switches and Automatic

Transfer and Bypass Isolation Switches in "standard" enclosures are seismic

certified under AC156 building code for non-structural components.

TS 840 TRANSFER SWITCH

PM057 REV 8 10/01/25 6Thomson Technology

"Standard" enclosures are all transfer switch enclosures Thomson Technology offers

in NEMA 1, NEMA 2, NEMA 3R and NEMA 4X for the above listed product. If a

customer requests a custom enclosure it would not be covered under the generic

certificate; if certification were a requirement Consult factory before ordering.

The Automatic Transfer Switches are qualified to the highest known level in North

America; based on site class D. Specifically this is a spectral acceleration of 342%.

The transfer switch must be installed per the anchoring details provided for seismic

qualification. The equipment can be mounted in alternate means and still qualify if a

qualified Civil Engineer designs the alternate method of anchoring.
