How does automatic load shedding work in Diesel Generators?

Automatic load shedding synchronizes the start of diesel generators and turns off unnecessary ones, thereby ensuring that only the required power is used, enhancing resilience (N+1). Illustrations provided demonstrate the practical operation of this system. For inquiries regarding diesel generators, contact them at 0845 055 8455.

Automatic load shedding allows diesel generators to start up synchronised, together with turning off generators not required. In effect shedding load.

Hence you only use the power required for the site and not over power. This is also a form of resilience N+1.
