Creating backup diesel generator technology may be one of the most helpful technological advances in the world today. Although emergency power supply systems were initially not advanced enough to start automatically, with the passage of time and technological advancements, today's diesel generators have become more intelligent. For example, the diesel generator set of Top Power has an automatic start stop function. When the mains power is cut off, the generator set can start automatically. When the mains power returns to normal, the generator set will automatically shut down, and when the power supply automatically switches to mains power, the entire process does not require human intervention, achieving complete intelligence.
If there is a power outage, the emergency diesel generator will automatically start without anyone running towards the main distribution board. But after all, a diesel generator is a machine, and if you don't monitor it regularly, you can't rely on it. Proper maintenance of your diesel generator is crucial to ensure its proper functioning and uninterrupted power supply to your business in the event of a power outage.
In order to ensure the smooth and uninterrupted operation of diesel generators, maintenance of diesel generators is crucial. If you slack off and check it regularly, it is likely to malfunction when needed. You also do not want the backup diesel generator to be unable to provide backup power during a power outage.
Before delving into the technical details of how diesel generators start automatically, we first discuss some important prerequisites that must be performed before actually starting a diesel generator.
There are three methods to check whether the diesel generator is working properly.
Battery mode start
Hydraulic start
Auto start
It is very important to test diesel generators through three methods when monitoring them. Firstly, start the battery once a week to ensure the effectiveness of the installed battery. You need the batteries to be in optimal condition to ensure that they do not leak or dry up in the emergency electrical system.
Perform hydraulic and automatic start-up after weekly inspection. Before actually switching loads, please check whether the diesel generator is truly started when manually starting and cutting off the power supply.
Once the diesel generator has passed all testing procedures, you can ensure that the wiring system is actually changed so that the diesel generator can start automatically when needed.
There are two power boards in the electrical system of the building. One is the emergency distribution panel, and the other is the manual distribution panel. The circuit breaker connects the two, but due to interlocking, we cannot supply power from both sources at the same time.
Therefore, the circuit breaker is disconnected from the emergency distribution panel or manual distribution panel and the connecting line. Opening the circuit breaker allows the diesel generator to automatically start with the support of the battery and provide power to all connected appliances.
To shut down the diesel generator, reconnect the circuit breaker to the connection line, i.e. close it again. Then interlock to unload the diesel generator, close the switch and turn off the diesel generator.
