GMA PowerTech PLC supports both the engine side and the electrical distribution side — ATS, AMF, switchgear, synchronizing, protection, cabling, earthing, load transfer logic, and the control platforms that govern reliable supply.
Distribution & Transfer Infrastructure
| System | Function | GMA Involvement |
|---|---|---|
| ATS / AMF panels | Automatic transfer between utility and generator; automatic start/stop logic. | Installation, wiring checks, configuration, simulation tests, fault diagnosis, replacement. |
| Synchronizing panels | Parallel operation of multiple generators or generator-to-grid where applicable. | Control checks, load sharing verification, protection review, commissioning support. |
| Switchgear and breakers | Switching, isolation, protection, and distribution of electrical power. | Inspection, connection checks, trip testing support, breaker maintenance coordination. |
| Protection relays | Protect equipment from overcurrent, earth fault, reverse power, under/over voltage and frequency. | Settings review support, trip verification, commissioning records. |
| Cables and busbars | Carry generator output to distribution points. | Route planning, termination checks, insulation testing, torque checks, heat-risk review. |
| Earthing and bonding | Electrical safety, fault path, neutral reference, lightning and equipment protection. | Continuity checks, visual inspection, recommendation for proper bonding. |
| Monitoring and SCADA | Remote status, alarms, run hours, load readings, maintenance visibility. | Monitoring-ready architecture, signal mapping, basic integration support, reporting concept. |
OEM Generator Control Platforms
These controllers act as the brain of the generator set. They handle everything from engine safety parameters — oil pressure, coolant temperature, and overspeed — to power monitoring, voltage regulation, and automated transfer switching. GMA PowerTech supports diagnostics, configuration, and lifecycle management across major OEM control platforms.
