Automatic Start Diesel Generator Operation Guide

1. Automatic Startup During Power Outage

  • When mains power fails, the Cummins diesel generator automatically: 
  • Receives the signal and self-starts within seconds
  • Stabilizes speed, frequency, voltage, and current within 60 seconds 
  • Disconnects the grid power and switches to generator-powered backup mode

2. Automatic Shutdown When Mains Power Returns

Upon mains power restoration, the system:

Detects the signal and initiates shutdown

Stops the generator within 60 seconds

Reconnects to the main power grid and restores normal electricity supply

 

Parallel Operation for Higher Power Demand

When a single generator’s capacity is insufficient:

Two or more Cummins generators can be synchronized using a parallel control panel (PCC). 

A standard parallel system includes: 

One synchronization panel per generator

Automatic load sharing and frequency matching

 Manual vs. Automatic Mode

Manual Mode: Self-start function is disabled (requires manual operation). 

Automatic Mode:

Enables full auto-start capability

Upon detecting a power outage, the system: 

Triggers the generator startup

Switches the power source via an automatic transfer switch (ATS)
