⚙️ Operation Specifications and Usage Methods

• Installation Preparation: Ensure all power sources to the electrical switchgear panel are completely locked out. Mount the compact SPM-D10/N unit securely onto a panel door or DIN rail, and verify proper wiring for the wide-range 90 to 250 VAC/DC auxiliary power supply.
• Parameter Configuration: Utilize the integrated front-panel keypad and display or configuration software via the communication port to set up 2-phase generator voltage inputs, 2-phase busbar voltage inputs (up to 400 VAC measuring inputs), phase matching limits, and slip frequency parameters.
• Operational Control: Monitor real-time voltage, frequency, and phase angle measurements directly on the integrated digital display while the unit automatically synchronizes the generator and issues the breaker closure pulse.

⚡ Startup and Shutdown Sequence

• Startup Sequence:
  1. Inspect all terminal connections for the 2-phase generator and 2-phase busbar potential transformer (PT) measuring inputs (rated up to 400 VAC).
  2. Energize the wide-range 90 to 250 VAC/DC auxiliary power supply and verify that the digital display powers on successfully without fault flags.
  3. Start the prime mover and bring the generator up to rated speed and nominal voltage.
  4. Engage the synchronization mode on the SPM-D10/N; the unit will automatically match frequency and phase angle before issuing the breaker close command.
• Shutdown Sequence:
  1. Transfer active electrical load away from the synchronized generator using manual or automated commands.
  2. Open the generator circuit breaker to disconnect the unit from the shared busbar.
  3. Shut down the prime mover according to standard operational procedures.
  4. De-energize the auxiliary power supply and measuring input lines once the system is fully shut down.
