    Transfer switch feeding transformer causes upstream circuit breaker trip

    Thanks for all the input RRaghunath, the loads are a 6-SCR bridge that fires to feed an inductive field coil, but if terminated, the feedback from the field reverses and the internal crowbar would fire to duct energy from the field to keep that field voltage down. internal crowbar can fire in...

    Transfer switch feeding transformer causes upstream circuit breaker trip

    Fast, open transition transfer switch causes upstream circuit breaker trip on transfer. From transformer secondary currents with lower loads that survive without a breaker trip, I see an open time of about 30ms. Feeding a 45kVA dry, three-phase transformer 480V to 160V AC, 55FLA, for generator...
