UPS
Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)
The function of a UPS is to ensure constant, reliable and high quality power to sensitive electronic equipment - whatever the quality of the utility supply.
A UPS is installed between the mains (utility) supply and the load. During normal conditions, when the mains is present, the UPS stores electric energy in batteries (its “fuel tank”) and cleans the incoming mains power before channeling it to the load.
In the event of a mains power failure (i.e. mains absent or outside tolerance) the UPS uses the energy reserve stored in the battery to continue to produce a continuous output. Sensitive electronic equipment protected by the UPS will not notice any interruption or alteration in its power supply input.
When the mains is re-established within tolerance, the UPS will be supplied again by the mains and the batteries will be recharged, making them ready to support future power failures.

Applications
The ZTSD is ideally suited for pumping stations, sewage treatment plants, hospital X-ray equipment, or wherever the majority of the load being controlled consists of large motors and/or transformers. Major UPS manufacturers strongly recommend the use of delayed transition type transfer switches to ensure proper operation of their rectifier circuit and battery system.
Characteristics
The ZTSD Series provides a user adjustable time delay after the opening of the closed contacts and before the closing of the open contacts for transferring large motor and/or transformer loads. This delayed transition time allows for motors to coast down and transformer fields to decay, thus allowing inductive loads to be re-energized after transfer with only normal inrush starting currents. The delayed transition design is an effective method of handling these applications and can be utilized as an alternative to a standard transfer switch equipped with an in-phase monitor.
The ZTSD Model allows a UPS system sufficient delay to recognize a power failure and transfer to batteries, acknowledge the return of power and allow the rectifier to walk onto the new source, reducing any transfer anomalies.
Except for the delayed transition period, the performance, operating capabilities, ratings, UL listings, with-stand current values and available options are identical to those of the ZTS Series ATS.

FunctionProviding, in heavy duty emergency power systems, a smooth transition from a normal source (source 1) to an emergency source (source 2) and back again.
Applications
An automatic transfer switch is the single vital link between utility and alternate power supplies. Yet it is the very operation and retransfer back to normal (source 1) that may be the cause of concern for many users. Loads such as electronic equipment, HID lighting, motor starters, etc., are sensitive to 30-100 ms. outage experienced during a typical transfer switch operation. Therefore, testing and use of the standby system is not optimized and necessary system checks are not performed because of concerns about the effects of transfer. In addition, opportunities for peak shaving and utility incentive rates may be passed over because of the inability to accept the short power interruptions inflicted during operation. In response to the needs of these installations the ZTSCT Closed Transition Transfer Switch and ZBTSCT Closed Transition Transfer/Bypass Switch.
Characteristics
These products provide the capability to transfer in a closed transition mode when both sources are within preset parameters. Utilizing GE Power Quality’s high speed drive system, the transfer of the normal (source 1) and alternate (source 2) sources is less than 100 milliseconds. Closed transition switches have two basic modes of operation. During a failure of one source (or out of specification), the ZTSCT Model operates as a delayed ZTSD transition switch. This sequence allows clear separation of an unreliable source from an available one. Closed transition operation takes place when both sources are within preset voltage and frequency parameters and the phase angle differential is less than five degrees. The closed transition sequence may be initiated by the test switch, a load exerciser clock, peak shaving controls or special utility incentive rate signals.
ZTSCT electrical ratings

Applications
The ZBTS Series of ATS can be used for the same applications as the corresponding ZTS models without bypass when power interruption during service or testing is unacceptable.
Characteristics
The ZBTS Model Bypass-Isolation Transfer Switch consists of two major modules – the automatic transfer and the bypass-isolation switch.
The automatic transfer switch module is the proven GE Zenith ZTS Series, built in ZTS, ZTSD or ZTSCT configuration and constructed for reliable operation. The same components, heavy duty silver alloy contacts, rugged drive mechanism and silver plated bus bar inter-connections are used throughout the ZBTS Series.
The bypass section is a ZTS switch provided with a quick make/quick break manual load transfer handle and GE Zenith’s control/interlock system consisting of both mechanical and electrical interlocks. The bypass is equipped with normal (source 1) failure sensing and a time delay to start the engine (source 2) automatically if the ATS has been removed for service and a failure occurs. The modules are mounted in a compact enclosure and completely interconnected requiring only the normal (source 1) source, emergency (source 2) source and load cable connections.

Static Transfer Switches (STS)
Static Transfer Switches (STS) are designed to transfer the supply between two independent AC power sources. Unlike traditional automatic transfer switches (ATS), a static transfer switch provides a fast load transfer (typically 1/4 of a cycle), which ensures uninterrupted operation of sensitive electronic equipment. Load retransfer to the preferred input source is virtually instantaneous (typically 0.1 ms).

Applications
Static Transfer Switches (STS) are designed to transfer the supply between two independent AC power sources. Unlike traditional automatic transfer switches (ATS), a static transfer switch provides a fast load transfer (typically 1/4 of a cycle), which ensures uninterrupted operation of sensitive electronic equipment. Load retransfer to the preferred input source is virtually instantaneous (typically 0.1 ms). The basic applications of STS are in automatic systems in the power industry, power supply systems for petrochemical industry, computer and telecommunication centres, automatic and security systems of ‘intelligent’ buildings as well as other equipment which is sensitive to interruptions in the supply.
Characteristics
The excellent overload capability and transfer algorithm enables fast fuse clearance in the event of a short-circuit. As a consequence the voltage immediately returns to normal to supply the other loads. The built-in transient voltage surge suppression system for SCR switches provides additional protection against damage to the supplied equipment.
The static transfer switch consists of two bidirectional thyristor switches for each phase equipped with a control and protection system. The 2 or 4 pole types have an additional neutral line switch. After failure of the preferred source, the STS checks the state of the alternate power source and transfers the load to whichever source provides power within selectable limits. This transfer can be triggered by disturbance in the preferred source voltage, overcurrent in the source or manual or remote change of the preferred source. With both sources in limits and synchronised (phase error within the acceptable range), manual or remote transfer is performed in less than 200 µs. Transfers initiated by fault conditions in the preferred source depend on the status of the alternate source. For synchronised power sources with phase error within the limits, transfer to an alternate source is made within 6ms delay. Lack of synchronisation causes delay before transfer. It is possible to set the delay with dipswitches.

Parallel Switchgear (PSG) - Energy Commander
Paralleling is an operation in which multiple power sources, usually two or more generator sets, are connected and synchronized to a common bus (same parameters in regards to frequency, phase angle, etc.).
There are several advantages to be realized when employing paralleling switchgear in an electrical design such as increased reliability, flexibility, ease of uninterruptible maintenance and application/operation cost savings. It is because of these advantages that paralleling switchgear has become one of the best choices for meeting today’s power requirements.
Energy Commander has been providing customer facilities with reliable power switching systems for many years and continues its excellence into the 21st century. Since the inception of paralleling switchgear, many successful Energy Commander installations have been supplied with a focus on providing reliability.
Energy Commander has become the leader in supplying solutions to simple and very complex systems due to its design flexibility. Energy Commander has evolved and adapted to the changing technologies in engine generator design, switchgear controls and monitoring systems. It reflects GE’s continuing commitment to reliable solutions for critical power applications.

Paralleling Switchgear - Energy Commander
Why Paralleling Switchgear?
There are several advantages to be realized when employing paralleling switchgear in an electrical design such as increased reliability, flexibility, ease of uninterruptible maintenance and application/operation cost savings. It is because of these advantages that paralleling switchgear has become one of the best choices for meeting today’s power requirements.
ReliabilitySystems in which part of the load is very critical may be best served by paralleling one or more generator sets. Under parallel operation all the generator sets are started at once. The first set to reach the proper parameters will assume the most critical portion of the load, with the remaining sets picking up lower priority loads. In addition, by using a load shedding application, the failure of one generator set will not interrupt power to the critical loads, as less important loads can be dropped off the line.
FlexibilityParalleling power sources allows for a wide variety of choices in the generation, distribution and utilization of the system’s power.
Uninterruptible MaintenanceWhen one engine - generator set is out of service for maintenance or repair, having others synchronized on the same bus can provide the needed back-up power, should an outage occur.
Cost SavingsSavings can be realized on the application when a number of smaller sets would be less expensive than one large set or when the load makes it impractical to divide into several sections, each with it’s own generator. Savings can also occur on the operation side when generator set life is extended from being used only when needed to support the load. Also, when it is anticipated that the load will grow significantly in the future, the capital investment can be reduced by starting with small sets and paralleling additional units as load increases dictate.

System reliability
The Energy Commander Paralleling Switchgear product has several hardwired features which ensures trouble-free operation and maximum reliability. Annunciator panels, load control switches and meters are all hardwired components. Upon the unlikely failure of the master control, a back-up engine start operation is hardwired into the system. Also the programmable logic controller (PLC) which runs automatic operations is backed up with a true hardwired manual control.Finally, as a leader of paralleling switchgear technology, Energy Commander has an extensive array of successful, trouble-free installations around the globe. The breadth of experience and system complexity all make Energy Commander second to none in the industry.
Ease of Use and Operations
A Master HMI panel can be useful to paralleling switchgear systems for user access and monitoring. The key control and monitoring functions in these systems include metering, annunciation, controlling breakers and engine generators in automatic operations as well as manual. This monitoring and control should be carefully considered when selecting which type of HMI is best suited for the operator and his facility. The greatest reliability in monitoring and control functions is realized with hard-wired analog meters, switches, and annunciation indicators, with very limited HMI access needs by the operator.
In some cases, critical facilities may be suitable for additional system monitoring, trouble-shooting, and remote access ability. Operators in this case will require a more advanced Master HMI in addition to the system hard-wired meters, switches, and annunciation. The Energy Commander ACS “Advanced Control System” is recommended for these cases.The Energy Commander Operator Interface Panel (OIP) is ideal for simpler systems. Since status of the system can be viewed in front of the line-up including all source metering, alarm, shutdown, and status annunciation, the operator is not required to utilize the OIP to cycle through any screens for the system control and monitoring. The user is only required to use the touch panel for system testing purposes, non-critical settings and timing adjustments, and limited manual control redundant to the hard-wired switches.
Standard Operator Interface Panel (OIP)
• Intuitive interface makes operation simple. Little or no learning curve required to operate system.
• A main screen with navigation buttons and non-system critical button/switches.
• System testing screen allowing the operator to manually initiate automatic system testing operations.
• Generator interface settings latched into the PLC control system upon entry.• System load add/shed manual control redundant to hard-wired manual
control switches in master control.• Generator optimization settings latched into PLC control system upon entry.
Optional Advanced Control System (ACS) for Special Applications
• Full functions of OIP with the addition of SCADA capabilities.• Optionally Internet capable - allows remote access via web.• Online controllable / programmable (behind customer’s own firewall).• Advanced Event Logging and Source Trending allows statistical root cause
analysis.• Duplicates System and Generator Annunciation.• Remote system diagnostics.• Alarm and maintenance messaging, including predictive maintenance.• Graphical User interface. Intuitive and user friendly. Requires NO computer
experience.• Password protection. Capable of hundreds of levels of authority.
