"At least a dozen automakers have the allegedly faulty inflators in use, including Volkswagen, Ford, BMW and GM, NHTSA said." <-- is there a list of affected vehicles yet or do we wait until a letter shows up in the mail? (or checking for recalls online everyday?)

Thank you catserveng. In Arkansas. It's the only 3616 setup in Arkansas (from what I've been told). I was told Southworth-Milton supported the install if that company sounds familiar. There is a brief mention in some older correspondence with CAT. The CAT person was A.Ford (maybe Alan?) and...

Thanks all for the responses to date. catserveng; Thanks for the information. Yes the PLC analog output to the 2301A load share lines is from a 1771-OF1 (VDC analog output); the KW input to the PLC is a Crompton Instruments / Paladin Transducer TYPE 256-TWMU. A magpickup is used for...

Thanks all for the responses. Our Operators will contact the dispatcher to verify no grid disturbances are expected and to verify we can parallel this unit to the grid. Our protective relays (not to mention the 14 of them by name) gives standard protection. The PLC logic includes monitoring for...

Thanks for the response waross. Closing the droop contact will take the 2301A unit out of droop. The PLC logic reads: that once it detects a bus, that is tied to the grid, it will close the droop contact. The logic wording includes "Governor and PF controller in Load Share Mode when active"...

I recently started working with a 1990s vintage CAT3616 genset(with Kato generator) that includes PLC-5 controls; I'm trying to come up to speed with this system (no pun intended) and all the fancy accessories they added in the 90s. It has a EGB-29P and 2301A (low voltage model); a KCR-760...
