For all breakers under power management system (PMS) control, the sync check ensures
that the voltages, frequencies, and phase angles are within the allowed limits before the
controller closes the breaker.
The synchronisation check includes blackout close. That is, if equipment is trying to close a
breaker to a busbar that does not have voltage, the breaker is allowed to close without
synchronisation.
The check is based on the frequency difference, the voltage difference, and the phase
angle across the breaker, as measured by the controller.
The synchronisation check does not have an alarm or inhibits. However, if the controller
cannot synchronise within the time allowed, there will be a sync failure alarm.

The alarm response is based on the highest phase-to-phase voltage, or the highest phase-to-
neutral voltage, from the busbar, as measured by the controller. For the BUS TIE breaker
controller, these voltages are measured on busbar B.
