conditionally based on the number of generators on line. When the first generator comes to the bus, Priority Level 1 loads shall be added; Second generator, priority 2, etc. After a time delay that allows all operational generators to come to the bus, Load Shed Mode shall shift to Load Sensitive Mode. 5. Load Sensitive Load Shed After all generators have been given sufficient time to come to the bus, load shed shall shift to Load Sensitive mode. The system shall compare current generator on-line capacity (in kW) to current load requirements. If surplus capacity is greater than the calculated Load Add setpoint, after the Load Add Time Delay the next Load Shed Priority will be added. This calculation will continue until all Sheddable Loads are added, or until surplus capacity is less than the calculated Load Add setpoint. If surplus capacity is less than the calculated Load Shed setpoint, after the Load Shed Time Delay the next Load Shed Priority will be shed. This calculation will continue until all Sheddable Loads are shed, or until surplus capacity is greater than the calculated Load Shed setpoint. The Load Shed Control, in its automatic shedding and adding of loads, shall not override any manual load shed/add operation. 6.

Upon entrance into Emergency or Load Management modes, all generators shall be started and paralleled to the bus. After the Remove Time Delay, generators shall be removed from the bus as a function of the generator percentage loading by the user selected Generator Remove time delay. Generators shall be removed from the bus in descending priority. Should the generator percentage loading increase to the user selected Generator Add limits for the user selected Add Delay, the next generator will be started, synchronized and paralleled to the bus. Generators shall be added to the bus in ascending priority order. Should the generator plant ever reach 95% loading, the next priority generator shall be started and added to the bus with no time delay.
