ASCO Power Transfer Switch Director of Applications Engineering Bhavesh Patel discusses ASCO's Power Transfer Switch used to connect emergency and on-site power.
Automatic Transfer Switches for Business Critical Continuity of Power Reliable transfer of critical electrical loads to emergency sources
helps avoids power interruption that can result in anything from minor
inconvenience to major catastrophe. High speed transfer of loads between
alternate sources of power is a necessity for business critical
continuity of power to protect commercial and industrial buildings,
healthcare facilities, telecom central offices, web hosting and Internet
data centers, process manufacturing, distributed power load management
and other facilities with critical loads.
Caution When “Value Engineering” Transfer Switches “Value Engineering” is a critical function in today’s competitive
environment. Some equipment, such as transfer switches, has more risk to
profits compared to potential savings.
A contractor uses value engineering to reduce the cost of the
installation and to provide shared savings to the owner. This can reduce
final cost of the project without reducing the scope and functionality.
Unfortunately, if something goes wrong, the contractor is pressured
make it right without additional compensation.
Selective Coordination in Critical Facilities In critical facilities, where it is particularly important to limit and
isolate the effects of an overcurrent occurrence, selective coordination
of overcurrent protection devices protects personnel and others on the
premises, keeps critical power systems running, and prevents damage or
loss of wiring and equipment by preventing a cascading loss of power.
Selective coordination is a technique for isolating a faulted circuit.
When designing a selectively coordinated system for critical facilities,
the circuits for emergency power and the transfer switches must be
factored in.
