7.6.3.2.2 Handover DOWN Swap sequence
The handover DOWN sequence describes the opposite situation. The gen-set with higher nominal
power is swapped by the gen-set with lower nominal power. The gen-set with higher nominal capacity
is stopped once the sequence is over. The stopped gen-set is in ready state and keeps available in
power management.

NOTE:
If the power band change delay Pwr management: #PwrBnChngDlDn is adjusted to that longer value
than total time requiring start of other gen-set, stabilization, synchronization, GCB closing and soft
loading, it postpones the soft unloading of the gen-set to be stopped. This delay is depicted by the
dashed orange line. Consequently, the handover down swap sequence is postponed by this delay.
