OPERATION
A.
The control shall include, but not necessarily be limited to the
following:
1
1. Voltage and frequency sensing monitors. Monitors shall initiate
a standby sequence of operation upon complete loss or reduction
of any phase to phase voltage to an adjustable range of 70% to
'
95% of rated voltage. The switch shall transfer to the standby
source when its voltage reaches 95% of rated frequency and an
adjustable value between 85% and 95% of rated voltage.
'
2. The switch shall retransfer to normal when the voltage reaches an
adjustable value between 85% and 95% and all time delays have
'
expired.
3. The standby sequence of operation shall be initiated upon loss or
reduction of normal source voltage, after an adjustable time
'
period of between 0 and 5 seconds. Retransfer to the normal
source shall occur after the normal source has been restored for
an adjustable time period of between 0 and 30 minutes. This time
delay shall automatically be bypassed if the standby source
'
should fail and the normal source is available. After retransfer
to the normal source, the generator(s) shall continue to run for
an adjustable time period between 0 and 5 minutes.
