FEATURES:
*May add frequency sensing
- Over current protection
- Over voltage protection
- Under voltage protection
The default source of power is the utility supply. In a situation where the utility supply voltage is below 210V or above 270V the system would start the generator and cut of the utility supply, provided that the generator voltage is also within the specified range. In a case where both sources are out of range, no power would be supplied until one of them comes into the voltage range.
The current sensor monitors the current drawn. When the current goes above 10A, the system is cut off completely, a message is displayed instructing that the fault be cleared and the reset button press afterwards.
The LCD constantly displays the Voltages of both sources, the current drawn as well as the states of both sources(whether they are on or off)
THE VARIOUS PARTS
