Custom power control systems

Russelectric provides custom designed and manufactured power control and synchronizing switchgear systems in low and medium voltage ratings for single- and multi-unit on-site power generators. In addition to emergency power, system designs may include a variety of sophisticated control functions such as peak shaving, load curtailment and utility paralleling for both open transition transfer and live-source closed transition transfer. Closed transition transfer allows retransfer and system testing without disturbing the load, the company said. Prime power/cogeneration systems are available and systems include PLC controls for automatic prime mover starting and stopping, prime mover status and alarm annunciation, synchronizing and priority load control. Systems include sensors to monitor volts, amps, watts, frequency and other pertinent electrical power data of both individual generator sets and the overall system. Controls can be furnished for any type of prime mover including diesel engines. Other features, such as load demand control for fuel management and custom system integrating SCADA and simulation are also available. All systems are UL listed and are designed and built in accordance with ANSI, IEEE and NEMA standards
