    MCB Short circuit level sizing for Control circuit

    Hello Experts, I am about to select the proper SC level for a 2A,2P (L & N) MCB which protect a control circuit of motor feeder inside low voltage switchgear. I am feeding this circuit directly from main bus bar which has rated short circuit level 65KA I need to know that is it mandatory to...

    Synchronize a transformer to a generator

    That's the SLD of the client. If i use synchronization module Deep Sea 8610 MKII, will it do the required? Keep Moving Forward ;)https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=be1efaad-7d45-4f30-9aeb-c2ddf1932a36&file=SLD.jpg

    Synchronize a transformer to a generator

    Dears, I have a required sequence of operation in a power center switchgear. The client have 2 transformers, 2 generators and bus coupler. Each transformer and generator for each section. In normal operation, each transformer is feeding its section and bus tie is off. if one of transformer is...

    avoiding power contactor drop off during voltage dip

    if you have one incoming for the panel, you can replace the undervoltage coil with a shunt coil and monitor the line voltage by an external relay like 3UG4616-1CR20 Siemens type. the incoming will trip only after the relay picks up and you can delay the pick up by the relay. Keep Moving Forward ;)

    Motor current ratings when using Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)

    May be the soft starter will not operate on full load at first of installation.

    Ampacity of bus bar sections

    according to above photo, yes you can implement that configuration if the loads are halfed on the two sides of incoming but there is one issue. Will the connection from incoming to bus bar withstand the overall ampacity?? Keep Moving Forward ;)

    Tie between different bus bar ratings

    The loads for each section in the old system is 600KW. The old gen sets is 875KVA. The new gen sets is 1.3 MW. Keep Moving Forward ;)

    Tie between different bus bar ratings

    Dear Colleagues, kindly check the attachment first. My client has an exciting bus bar system 2500A with 3 gen sets ( can be synchronised ). he wants to make an extension bus bar system 5000A with 2 higher gen sets than the others ( also can be synchronised with each other and the old ) & wants...

    Motor Starting Method Selection

    Hi David I don't understand what make you nervous to discuss star/delta as a starter method. Every thing has a dark side which make no thing is perfect. RVSS is already a great devise which provides many advantages for controlling, protecting and capable of communication with a monitoring system...

    Motor Starting Method Selection

    Hi jraef; Thank you for the detailed explanation but i still have a question. The solid state soft starter is simply a thyristor at start and then by passed by a contactor. if any thing happened in this electronic circuit, it means total shutdown for the motor unlike the star/delta starting-if...

    Motor Starting Method Selection

    Hi GroovyGuy i faced many of pump starters for the same rating either star/delta or soft starter so, i was need to know the difference between them in the pump operation as i am far away ffrom any site to know it. Thanks alot

    Motor Starting Method Selection

    Motor rating like 110KW for water pump, there is standard combination when i use DOL or star/delta etc.. when i prefer a starting method than the others?

    Motor Starting Method Selection

    Dear Every One; I wonder which criteria i can select the type of starting method of the motor like direct on line, star/delta, soft starter, variable speed drive.. if there is any paper explain it, please share it with me... Thanks
