6.1 POWER TURN-ON PROCEDURE, cont.
6.1.2 Systems Equipped With The Seamless Transfer Option
With the converter in the Standby State (as left at the end of Section 6.1), press the GENERATOR
POWER (3) metering button. The generator voltage and form will now be displayed. If two
generators are installed, select Generator #1 or Generator #2 by pressing the F1 (13) or F2 (13)
button after selecting the GENERATOR metering screen.
NOTE: Unlike the converter and shore power displays, generator load current is not measured by
the system, and as such no displays are available for current, kW, or kVA.
To determine the generator’s current operational status, observe the SHIP’S POWER button group.
Two LEDs are included in this group, one next to the SHIP’S POWER - CONVERTER (9) button,
the other next to the SHIP’S POWER - GENERATOR (12) button. The LED (9A) next to the
CONVERTER button will be lit when the converter is on and supplying power to the ship’s
distribution grid. The LED (12A) next to the GENERATOR button will be lit when the generator
is supplying power to the ship’s distribution grid. The SHIP’S POWER LEDs should never be lit at
the same time: only one source of energy should be connected to the ship’s distribution system at
any point in time. If the GENERATOR LED is lit, but the GENERATOR metering display indicates
no power present, then the GENERATOR is connected to the distribution grid through its circuit
breaker, but the generator is stopped or its voltage sense wiring to the converter is interrupted.
NEVER ASSUME A CIRCUIT IS INACTIVE (WITHOUT VOLTAGE) BY RELYING UPON
THE SHORE POWER CONVERTER’S METERING SYSTEM. DO NOT ACCESS THE
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WITHOUT PROPERLY VERIFYING THE SAFETY OF THE
SITUATION USING ALTERNATE MEANS.
