5 min read

Musgrove Park Hospital is a large NHS hospital located in Taunton, Somerset, England, run by Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust. Originally a US Army General Hospital during the Second World War, it became an NHS hospital in 1949. 

Knight Electrical replaced the generator of an older set providing standby power to the Duchess Building.

It has been designed for no-break testing and return to mains with an option for exporting in the future. The set was fitted with InteliSys NT, mains decoupling relay MainsPro and AVR Interface IG-AVRi, so it can be used for paralleling.

MainsPro
MainsPro is an easy-to-install mains protection relay for parallel-to-mains applications. It reliably monitors voltage, frequency and loss of mains protections to safeguard both the distribution network and the generators. This protection relay is designed for installations with renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic plants, gen-sets, cogeneration units, and microturbines.
