Prefabricated power solutions
They provide a quick and efficient solution for the emergency restoration of power in the case of equipment failure. They can also serve as a temporary bypass substation to enable major
Examples of emergency generator systems applications are fire pumps, high-rise buildings, atriums, chemical exhaust systems and hospitals. Less common examples can include critical operations power systems facilities or high-density storage facilities.
Fast deployable, independent grid substations up to 420 kV for Transmission System Operators are increasing the availability of energy transmission systems. The substation is designed for road transportation and dimensions of each unit meet local road transportation requirements.
An installed emergency generator system that fails under load or does not perform to specifications defeats the purpose of the installation. Design considerations must be made when building an emergency power system that operates in extreme weather conditions. For example: A generator must be located in an area not subject to flooding.
The most common style of switch in use for emergency generators. When utility power is lost, the switch transfers the load to the emergency generator when it's ready to accept it. Once utility power is returned, the ATS transfers the load back to the utility system. Only component specifications are provided, not manufacturer recommendations.
