Paralleling (SPtM, MINT)

A range of "Supply Only or Integrated" solutions from a standard SPtM (Single Parallel to Mains) to more elaborate multiple source supplies (Electricity Supply) with multiple standby generator arrangements, these multiple supply systems can be for standby and/or synchronised parallel applications.

Our solutions can be "off the shelf" designs for the standard applications or customer focused design, build, install and commissioned projects, data centres, hospitals, banks.

Our design teams engineer solutions to client specific requirements using our own products to achieve an operational solution from concept through to client handover.

Single Parallel to Mains (SPtM)

  • This application is for two sources of supply, the primary source being the mains and the second being a single generator set, the control solution provides a fully automatic mains failure system with the facility for ‘No Break – Soft Transfer’ of the load from generator to mains on power restoration
  • The AMF control has the standard control functions as with SSB, on mains restoration the operator can decide to have a fully automated system with a ‘No
  • Breaker’ operation, manually initiating the control sequence prior to paralleling or provide a breaker transfer of the supplies
  • The control solution provides the operator with ‘TEST’, this allows a ‘No Break’ transfer of the site load between two healthy supplies
  • The generator can remain in parallel in a ‘Base load’ mode or ‘Import / export’ mode of operation
  • Alternatively the mains supply can be separated from the load allowing the operator to choose the power source for the business without a failure or break in supply and disrupting the business power
  • Full AMF support; both MCB and GCB are controlled

  • InteliGen NT controller

Multiple INTernal

  • Multiple application with internal control loops for speed and voltage bias, internal synchronising, load sharing and VAR sharing.
  • These features, which are normally external bolt on devices within the control system design, are all internal component features of the controller.
  • This application is designed for multiple gen-sets in island parallel or mains parallel operation.
  • The control solution allows parallel operation of a group of generators for constant running, alternatively the gen-set can be used as a secondary source of supply in a AMF design with the introduction of an AMF controller to provide mains detection and mains breaker control.
  • Multiple engine arrangements can be configured with various specific site criteria.
  • Starting and operating configurations are possible to suit the site and business conditions, engines running can also be controlled by load.
