I have a question about a phase monitor we have on one of our A/C units here. The local utility is coming tomorrow to change out a voltage regulator on their lines. The A/C in question has a phase monitor and has been tripping a 60 3 pole breaker that is part of the control box, and this unit provides cooling for a building that has a genset and ATS. My questions are, if the voltage on one phase was dropping to a point where the increased amperage would be high enough to trip the 60A breaker, shouldn't the phase monitor drop out and open the control circuits to the contactor that provides power to the unit? And secondly, wouldn't the sensors in the ATS detect the drop of power on the one phase and start up the genset? Sorry I don't have any better specs on the equipment as I was notified of this via email after I was home from work.
And for our utility guys, Where would a voltage regulator be on the utility lines? I don't work on the utility stuff and I've never heard of on used primaries.
TIA
