Yesterday we turned power off to an older piece of switchgear and it is a Main-Tie-Main and when the left side main went away so did the control power ? I am assuming they don?t have a rollover control power scheme otherwise this wouldn?t have happened. To solve this problem I was going to provide it 120V source from batteries, so I can disconnect a commercial power feed as needed. Now the undervoltage relay that locks that breaker will never engage, and will have the ability to open and close the breaker without a voltage presenet ? what are the possible problems that could arise from this as well, and why wouldn?t you want to control the circuit breaker if there isn?t power to the board?
