12. SynchrophaserWiringTest
Beforeproceedingwith wiringtest,ensurecontrolboxis unplugged,masterswitchis OFF,and synchrophasercircuitbreakeris pulled.
CAUTION: DO NOT PLUG IN CONTROL BOX UNTIL WIRING TEST IS SATISFACTORILY COMPLETED. EVEN WITH SWITCH TURNED OFF, THE CONTROL BOX CAN BE SERIOUSLY DAMAGED.
NOTE: If anotheraccessoryusessamecircuitbreaker,disconnectcircuitwhilechecking resistancereadings.
(a)
Whenmeasuringpins in connectorplug,performtestper Chart2 with a highqualityohmmeter.
NOTE: Verifywires D,E,L,and J goto leftengine,andwiresC,G,R,andJ go to rightengine.
(b)
Aftercompletingwiringtest,turn masterswitchON (controlboxstillunplugged),reset synchrophasercircuitbreaker,and performthe followingvoltagecheck: (1.) ConnectvoltmeterbetweenreceptacleB andA. (2.) The voltmeterreadingmustbethe sameas powersupply. (3.) Ensurepolarityof pin B is positiveandpinA is negative.
