General Description
Custom Systems 22
General Description
Cat Generator Paralleling Switchgear has the power and 23
flexibility to handle even the most unique or demanding
configurations and project requirements. If the standard
XLM (Emergency Transfer (Xfer) and Load Management), 24
and EGP (Emergency Generator) configurations do not fit
the needs of your specific project, Cat Switchgear offers
fully customized solutions. 25
In many cases, custom configurable systems are based
on standard XLM or EGP configurations with additional
requirements such as:
26
■ Multiple utility connections
■ Multiple tie breakers
27
■ Unique sequence of operations
■ Special switchgear layout requirements, and so forth 28
Example Custom Overview Screen
Regardless of what the project requires, Cat Switchgear
can meet your needs. Some examples of Custom System 29
