11. LOAD SHEDDING / DUMMY LOAD
The load shedding feature consists on the disconnection of the least crucial loads when the genset
power approaches to its limits. These loads will be supplied again when the genset power falls below the
programmed limit. The internal Load Shedding function is always active. Any of the auxiliary relays may be
used as the load shedding output.
The dummy load function consists on the connection of a dummy load if the total genset load is
below a limit and to disconnection of the dummy load when the total power exceeds another limit.
The dummy load function is the inverse of the load shedding function, thus the same output may
be used for both purposes.
The parameters used in Load Shedding feature are:
P_631 Load Shedding Low Limit:
If the genset active power output goes below this limit, then the Load
Shedding relay will be deactivated.
P_632 Load Shedding High Limit:
If the genset active power output goes above this limit, then the Load
Shedding relay will be activated.
