AUTOMATIC TRANSFER SCHEMES
Powergen Controls designs and implements automatic transfer schemes that improve power system reliability, availability, and operational flexibility. Our solutions range from straightforward utility-generator transfer applications to complex synchronization, paralleling, and load management systems for mission-critical facilities.
Whether your project requires a simple standby power solution or an advanced power management system, our engineers can develop a transfer scheme tailored to your operational requirements and reliability objectives.
TRANSFER SCHEMES AND APPLICATIONS
Utility Main-Tie-Main Configurations
Provide redundancy and operational flexibility by allowing loads to be served from multiple utility sources.
Main-Main Transfer Schemes
Enable automatic transfer between two independent power sources to maintain continuity of service.
Open Transition Transfer
Transfers loads between power sources with a brief interruption in power.
Synchronized Momentary Open Transition
Uses source synchronization to minimize transfer time and reduce disruption to connected equipment.
Utility-to-Generator Transfer Schemes
Automatically transfer facility loads to emergency or standby generators during utility outages.
Momentary Closed Transition Transfer
Provides a seamless transfer between power sources by briefly paralleling them during the transfer process.
Extended Closed Transition Transfer
(Ramped Load Control)
Allows loads to be gradually transferred between sources, reducing electrical and mechanical stress on the system.
Maintained Parallel Operation
(Import/Export Control)
Allows a facility to operate in parallel with the utility while controlling power import and export levels to optimize system performance, support operational objectives, and manage energy costs.
Generator Paralleling Systems
Coordinate multiple generators to operate together, improving reliability, scalability, and load-sharing performance.
ENGINEERED FOR RELIABILITY
Powergen Controls combines advanced control technologies, protective relays, synchronization systems, and automation platforms to deliver transfer schemes that minimize downtime, protect critical loads, and ensure seamless transitions between power sources.
Our solutions are commonly applied in Data Centers, Healthcare Facilities, Industrial Operations, Commercial Buildings, Utilities, and other mission-critical environments where power reliability is essential.
