Document Description
The existing CAT-ISO control system for the generator switchgear includes a number of obsolete components that need to be replaced. In addition, the existing control system is a proprietary system based on Modicon control system which is not the Districts' standard. The Upgrades will replace the control system with an Allen-Bradley PLC based control system. The standardized platform will increase the ability of Districts' staff to maintain and upgrade the control hardware and troubleshoot operational issues since they are already trained on this system. The project will also include some temporary power and portable generators during construction.
