AUTOMATED BUS TRANSFER CONTROL
FOR CRITICAL INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES
FOR CRITICAL INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES
Abstract
The techniques and methods for maintaining continuous electrical power to petroleum and chemical
facilities from two or more utility feeders by an Automated Bus Transfer Logic Controller System are
discussed. The purpose of this system is to reduce transients, torsional forces, inrush currents, and motor stress while maintaining continuous motor operation when the primary utility source experiences an interruption and the operating facility transfers the motor load to an alternative source of electrical supply. The economic considerations of maintaining continuity of
production during power supply interruptions using a Transfer Logic Controller to supervise bus transfers may be significant. The Relay System continuously monitors the alternative source, the load bus and the normal source and performs the necessary logic for power supply bus
transfers in two directions by automatically selecting from either the Fast, In-Phase or Residual Voltage methods. The engineering studies, application considerations, motor control design requirements, installation and operation of the automated bus transfer controller for a
chemical facility are presented and discussed. The present bus transfer methods are reviewed. The
effectiveness of these methods using typical buses is discussed. The influence of bus voltage and phase angle characteristics during bus transfer for determining the best transfer technique is also analyzed.
