ADJUSTMENT
The factory setting for the Over Voltage Relay is 14.7 volts. Field adjustment of the set point is
possible. To do this, remove two screws holding down the cover. Note the position of the voltage

simultaneously measuring the voltage applied to the input terminals with a precise voltmeter and
