UNDER VOLTAGE RELAY / AMF PANEL OR PERFORM MAINS
SHUTDOWN
5 For sets running in parallel, synchronize the two generators on
‘Auto’ mode.
6 Run the engine “ON LOAD” for at least one (1) hour
7 Ensure emergency supply is provided to the appropriate areas.
8 Check operation of gauges and indicator lights.

9 Periodically check all the gauges, while running.

10 Check whether readings are within the limits.
11 Check for excessive vibration when engine is running. Tighten the
anti vibrating pads hold down bolts.
12 Inspect the condition of exhaust manifold insulation

13 Inspect for signs of leakages of: fuel, lube oil, engine oil, exhaust
and coolant/water.
14 Check the exhaust smoke appearance.
15 If any engine alarm is on while running, identify the faults and stop
the engine.
16 Check alternator battery charging operations.
17 Check operation of ventilation fans.
