Smart Load Shed Scheme

7

Smart Load Shed Scheme • Scheme uses Multilin UR relays (F35, F60, G60,

etc.) connected via Ethernet network to calculate power at locations throughout facility

• Analog power values are sent to master C90Plus control and programmable logic within C90Plus determines loads to shed based on user configuration

• C90Plus controller capable of communicating to 32 UR relays located throughout facility

• Smart load shed scheme capable of selecting the next loads to shed based on current profitability of the process or other predetermined criteria
