Electric Protection System Functional Test

SMCS - 7400-035

Test each component of the electrical protection system in order to determine that all of the
components work properly. Use the tables below to determine if the components are working
properly. The tests should be performed on an engine that is started for the first time and at
recommended service intervals. The service intervals are provided in the Operation and Maintenance
Manual.

If a problem occurs, refer to the index for the correct troubleshooting procedures. In order to
determine the correct engine rpm, refer to the speed specification chart in the Testing and Adjusting
section.
