SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF MONITORING BRIDGING TIME
First Claim
1. A method for managing an electrical distribution system for a facility having at least one load, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a computer system connected to a monitoring system, data related to transfer performance of a plurality of energy sources in the electrical distribution system, the plurality of energy sources including a first energy source and a second energy source;
using the computer system, converting the data into transfer parameter values;
receiving, at the computer system, predefined transfer performance indicators related to the plurality of energy sources in the electrical distribution system;
using the computer system, comparing the transfer parameter values with predefined transfer performance indicators to produce a comparison result assessing transfer performance of the plurality of energy sources; and
managing transfer of the at least one load between the first energy source and the second energy source based on the comparison result.
