Methods and systems for multiple bus generator and load control

Abstract

Multiple bus generator and load control monitoring system for electrical switchgear is provided. In one arrangement, the system is designed to allow for the increased functionality of a single bus system to be used in multiple bus systems wherein the multiple buses are separated or combined together to act as a single bus. Each bus within the multiple bus system may be able to utilize increased functionality of a typical generator bus and load control system independently if separated. Separate bus structures may be separated by some sort of isolation device, for example: a circuit breaker, transfer switch, or the like. If the bus segments are connected together via isolation devices, then the combination of the overall connected bus structure will act as a single entity, while containing enhanced automation functions.
