Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Technical Reference: Grid Connect Operation–Capstone Models C30 and C65 5. System States Grid Connect mode passes through a set of system states during a normal cycle. These states are described in the section below. A simple block diagram illustrating Grid Connect system states is shown in Figure 8. 5.1. Power Enabled The utility breaker is closed, bringing power to the system controller. 5.2. Power Up As the microturbine is powered up, the following events occur: • Voltage is applied to the DC Bus through the precharge board. • Personality module (PM) data is read and verified. • Software compatibility is verified to ensure the correct software is installed for components. • Communication with the display panel and fuel devices is locked. • Intra Power C is turned on to supply power for UCB auxiliary components. 5.3. Invalid The system transitions to this state when the software or hardware does not match, or if there have not been any jumpers installed to identify the operating mode. 5.4. Stand By This is the primary state for the microturbine after power up or anytime the unit is on but not issued a Start command. The system will stay in this state as long as grid power is applied to the terminals. 5.5. Idle Recharge This state is active in Grid Connect mode, but is used for Dual Mode or Standby systems that have batteries but do not run in Stand Alone mode except in the very rare instances of a power outage. The user can command the system to this state to charge the main batteries. The microturbine uses power from the grid to perform a complete charge of the batteries in order to maintain their health. 5.6. Electric Cooldown This system transitions to this state if the power electronics are too hot and need to be cooled down prior to starting the microturbine. 410027 Rev G (April 2013) Page 24 of 32 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction.PDF Image | Technical Reference Grid Connect Operation – Capstone Model C30 and C65
