1.
SGB blackout close:
The shaft generator breaker (SGB) blackout close
command comes from the blackout close sequence.
2.
Blackout present:
The controller checks that the blackout close conditions are
present:
•
There must be a blackout.
•
The other blackout recovery options on the main busbar have failed (that is,
recovery by genset connection, and auto close of the bus tie breaker). Note
that the emergency genset is not included in the blackout recovery options.
•
Auto close
must be
Enabled
(that is,
Configure > Parameters > Local power
management > Blackout > Blackout close > Enable SG blackout close
). If
Enable SG blackout close
is
Not enabled
, the breaker does not close
automatically.
•
The shaft generator voltage and frequency from the shaft generator must be
within the allowed range.
3.
Close SGB:
The controller activates the output to close the breaker.
4.
SGB closed:
The controller checks whether the SGB has closed.
•
If the SGB has closed, the SGB blackout close sequence has been completed
successfully.
•
If the SGB has not closed, an
SGB close failure
alarm is activated.

Close breaker
on
the display unit if there are no gensets available that can solve the blackout, and
