    Please sir, can you incorporate a switch into the ATS but the switch will be place inside the house and it can be used to put off the generator in the event that the generator turns on automatically when the grid goes off and the generator is not needed at the time

      You can keep the generator control circuit breaker (230 volts) switched off during daytime.
      Also you can arrange another 2 pole breaker series to the generator side control circuit breaker at a convenient place.
      It can be kept switched off when you don't need the generator to be started on certain occasions.

    Please, just give me a brief write up on how to used the stop and start button.
    Is it that if the generator turns on automatically and you don't need it at the time, you'll just push the stop button to turn off the generator?. Then, when you need to start the generator later again, you just push the start button and the generator turns on..
    I'm i correct?

    • @ElectroAcademyEA
      @ElectroAcademyEA  Місяць тому

      Connect the two green-marked 'Start' points on the ATS to the contact points of the generator's start push button.
      Similarly, connect the two red-marked 'Stop' points to the stop push button's contact points.
      When grid power is lost, the ATS will automatically bridge the start contacts, signaling the generator to start.
      When grid power is restored and the power is transferred back to the load, the ATS will activate the stop contacts to shut down the generator.
      Before making any connections on the generator side, consult the generator manufacturer to ensure compatibility and avoid potential malfunctions.
      It's also best to have a qualified electrician assist with these connections to ensure safety and proper setup.

    Can this turn on a diesel generator automatically when the grid goes off.
    Also, for a diesel generator, is there any other component connected in side the generator to support the automatic changeover?

    • @elohorolokpa
      @elohorolokpa Місяць тому +1

      @@ElectroAcademyEA ok.
      I thought there should be a signal wire that should send signal to the diesel generator.
      For instance, in a small generator without battery and key starter, a signal wire is connected to the of and on button of the small generator and this helps to switch off the generator when the grid is restored.
      So for the diesel generator, is there no signal wire.
      However, I'll be glad if this connection turns on the generator automatically when the grid goes off.

    The use of two contact open and do ATS, is not safe, when the current is large contact head temperature is high, so that the contacts fuse and can not be separated, the other switch on, the circuit will be made to safety hidden advantage.
    I encountered a situation is the motor from the Y connection to the delta hair, the above sexual condition, the result is the explosion of the switch.

      When using magnetic contactors, you can introduce a safety relay to identify contact welding situations in it.

      But I have a question... if one of the contactors get stuck, wouldn't the auxiliary contacts also get stuck? Or not necessarily? I'm asking this because if the interlocking is done between both contactors through the auxiliary contacts... wouldn't this be considered a safety layer or is a safety relay still needed?
