Capstone Turbine Corporation  21211 Nordhoff Street  Chatsworth  CA 91311  USA Technical Reference: Capstone MicroTurbine Electrical Installation 1. Introduction This document presents electrical installation information for the Capstone MicroTurbine systems. Capstone Microturbines (with the exception of the C65 Hybrid UPS) provide two operational modes:  Grid Connect Mode (GC)  Stand Alone Mode (SA) GC mode provides alternating current (AC) electrical power in parallel with a utility grid or with another generation source. GC mode includes built-in utility-synchronization capability and protective relay functions. In this mode, the microturbine acts as a current source, controlling its current output to meet the commanded power output at the rated voltage. SA mode provides alternating current (AC) electrical power for standby, backup, or remote off- grid purposes. In this mode, the microturbine acts as a voltage source, regulating its voltage output to the configured voltage and frequency settings. A Dual Mode (DM) connection option (which requires a Dual Mode System Controller), is available and allows automatic transition between GC and SA modes. Multiple systems can be combined and controlled as a single larger generating source, commonly known as a MultiPac. Operation as a MultiPac is available for SA, GC, and Dual Mode operation. The C65 Hybrid UPS product is unique since there are two AC connections, one for grid and one for critical load. The grid connection operates in a mode very similar to GC mode, and the critical load connection operates in a mode very similar to SA mode. This product’s unique electrical configuration is considered separately in Section 7. This document describes proper electrical interconnection for the Alternating Current (AC) output versions only. Refer to our Hybrid Electric Vehicle documentation for Direct Current (DC) model installation instructions. CAUTION: All of the allowable utility service connections for the various microturbine operating modes are presented in this document. Consult Capstone if your utility service connections do not agree with those presented in this document. 410009 Rev F (October 2013) Page 5 of 31 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.
