A power distribution system that distributes power to electrical loads includes a switchgear apparatus that selectively routes power from one of two or more feeds to downstream portions of the system based upon commands received from a separate external switchgear controller device that receives data from various portions of the power distribution system. The switchgear controller device can operate in one or more separate operating modes, where commands to the switchgear apparatus are generated based upon user inputs or determinations made by an internal switchgear control module based at least in part upon the selected operating mode of the switchgear controller device. The operating mode can be set based upon user interaction with an operating mode interface. The switchgear control module may generate switchgear operation commands based at least in part upon data received from the switchgear apparatus and various portions of the power distribution system.

Switchgear controller device

A switchgear controller device that generates commands to a switchgear apparatus that selectively routes power from one of two or more feeds to an electrical load of a power distribution system based upon the commands includes a user interface that displays graphical representations of various portions of the power distribution system. The switchgear controller device can receive data from components included in respective upstream portions and downstream portions of the power distribution system and generates graphical representations of present configurations of the components based at least in part upon the received data. Graphical representations of components included in the downstream portion of the system may be non-interactive, and graphical representations of components included in the upstream portion may be interactive based at least in part upon the present operating mode of the switchgear controller device.
