Operational Description:
Single No Parallel
G
The most basic mode of operation for the EGCP-2 is Single Unit No Parallel. In
this configuration the generator will never parallel with the mains. All operations
requiring the generator to be on load will take place with the mains breaker open.
The operations which place the generator on load are either a Loss of Mains
detection, or an Auto and Run With Load Switch Input. Since the generator will
never operate in parallel with the mains, all transitions between mains and
generator power to the load are done in an open transition fashion.
The key configuration points in the EGCP-2 software which need to be
configured for Single Unit No Parallel operation are:
Configuration Menu:
Number of Units: Single
Operating Mode: No Parallel
Real Load Control Menu:
Load Control Mode: Normal
Transfer Switch Menu:
Check Mains Breaker: Enabled if standby; Disabled if prime power
If this is to be a standby power unit, which will close to the load on loss of mains,
program the following setpoints as required by the system for reliable Loss of
Mains Detection. Not all these setpoints have to be set for loss of mains
detection, only those that pertain to detecting loss of mains for each particular
application or system.
If this is to be a prime power unit, which operates without any mains input to the
load, program either Mains Frequency Low Limit Alarm, or Mains Voltage Low
Limit Alarm for Loss Of Mains. This allows the unit to start any time it is given an
auto input.
