GCP-31
Genset control for Multiple/Parallel Operation
The GCP-30 Series genset control is designed to provide total control for multiple, medium to large sized applications. A network of the compact, versatile GCP-30 controls is capable of controlling up to 14 gensets with automatic sequencing. Load management features include automatic base loading/peak shaving, import/export control and emergency power/back up power generation.
The GCP-31 has logic for one circuit breaker.
