Switch Control Setup
Default DG Load Contribution
This setting should only be used when no real-time loading data are available from a
distributed generation device. When set to a non-zero value, the IntelliTeam system
uses this as the amount of current owing from the distributed generation device into
the distributed generation team. When set to zero (the default), the IntelliTeam system
uses loading polled by the IntelliNode/Info-Only module from the distributed generation
device as the current it’s contributing to the distributed generation team. But if a normal
IntelliTeam system device is teamed with the distributed generation device, it will assume
there is zero amps owing into the distributed generation team from the distributed
generation device when this value is set to zero. The distributed generation team load will
then be calculated by the IntelliTeam system device by using the current ow measured
by that device. (Range: 0-1000 A; Default = 0, meaning this is disabled and not used by
the IntelliTeam system.)
Note 1: The configured value will only appear on the device teamed with the distrib-
uted generation. All other devices on the circuit will display “Disabled.”
Note 2: If this value is set to a non-zero value when using an IntelliNode/Info-Only
device, then the IntelliTeam system will use this value to determine the amount of cur-
rent flowing into the distributed generation team, even when an IntelliNode/Info-Only
module measures current coming from the distributed generation device. Therefore, this
should only be used in cases where no real-time loading information is available from
the distributed generation device when using an IntelliNode/Info-Only device.
DG Reconnect Delay Timer Time
If set to 0, then the DG Reconnect feature is disabled on all devices receiving a Transfer
Trip message. Upon return of the normal source, users must manually close the device
that opened due to the Transfer Trip command to bring the distributed generation back
online. Setting this to a non-zero value enables the DG Reconnect feature. After the
normal source returns (either during restoration or the Return to Normal process) to
the device that opened due to the Transfer Trip command, then the IntelliTeam logic
will count down the timer. After the timer expires, the IntelliTeam system logic removes
the Transfer Trip Prohibit Restoration (TTPR) mode on the device and will then close
the device to bring the distributed generation device back online. (Range: 0-900 seconds;
Default = 0 seconds, meaning the Reconnect DG on Return to Normal mode is disabled.)
Note 1: The configured value will only appear on the device teamed with the distrib-
uted generation. All other devices on the circuit will display “Disabled.”
Note 2: If for any reason the DG Reconnect Delay Timer Time timer is aborted,
the timer will not restart automatically and the distributed generation device must be
manually put online.
Note 3: When an IntelliNode/Info-Only module is not directly associated with the
distributed generation device, it is up to the distributed generation device’s own protec-
tion/control device (e.g. breaker, inverter, etc.) to reconnect the distributed generation
device, because the IntelliTeam system has no control over the device or the reconnection
process. However, it should be put online when good voltage, cur¬rent, and frequency
are seen by the distributed generation protection/control device. When the IntelliTeam
system control is an IntelliNode/Info-Only module directly associated with the distributed
generation device, if it was sent the initial Transfer Trip command it will control the
reconnection process and issue a Close command to the distributed generation device’s
protection/control device when the DG Reconnect Delay Timer Time timer expires.
