This was a challenging assignment especially considering that 3 different type and makes of Generators had to be synchronised to the Grid. As usual MNC accepted the challenge and designed and commissioned the system meeting the client's requirement.


With the commissioning of this system, customer can prevent tripping of their plant on planned Grid failures as well as Grid restoration thus reducing down-times and increasing production efficiency.
