Speed/Load Raise and Lower Inputs
The functionality of the Speed/Load Raise and Lower inputs change based on
the mode that the EGCP-2 control is in. If the EGCP-2 control is in the Speed
control mode (generator breaker open), these contact inputs can be used to
raise and lower speed. If the EGCP-2 control is in the Baseload control mode
(generator breaker closed, utility tie breaker closed), these contact inputs can be
used to raise and lower unit baseload. If the EGCP-2 control is in the Process
control mode (Process control enabled), these contact inputs can be used to
raise and lower the process setpoint. Refer to figure 8-23 for Speed/Load raise
and lower contact functionality matrix.
Voltage Raise and Lower Inputs
The functionality of the Voltage Raise and Lower inputs change based on the
mode that the EGCP-2 control is in. If the EGCP-2 control is in the Speed control
mode (generator breaker open), these contact inputs can be used to raise and
lower unit voltage. If the EGCP-2 control is in the VAR control mode (VAR control
programmed, generator breaker closed, utility tie breaker closed), these contact
inputs can be used to raise and lower unit VARs. If the EGCP-2 control is in the
Power Factor control mode (Power Factor control programmed, generator
breaker closed, utility tie breaker closed), these contact inputs can be used to
raise and lower unit Power Factor. If the EGCP-2 control is in the isochronous
load sharing mode, the Voltage Raise and Lower inputs are disabled.
Gen, Tie, Alarm, and Shutdown Inputs
The Generator Breaker contact input must be wired so it is closed when the
generator breaker is closed.
The Utility Tie Breaker contact input must be wired so it is closed when the utility
tie breaker is closed.
The Configurable Alarm or Shutdown Inputs must be wired so they are closed
when the alarm or shutdown condition is true.
