16. Spinning reserve
Spinning reserve alarms can be used to start additional generators when the alarm is activated, or the ASC can notify the genset
controllers to start or stop generators in a power management solution to manage the available spinning reserve.
16.1 Spinning reserve alarms
Two alarms can be enabled. They can drive alarm relays and display alarms. These signals can be used as a driver to start
additional generators or trip load groups. Since the DEIF controller only raises the alarm, the associated actions must be configured
in the peripheral system (for instance third party genset controllers and load groups PLCs).
16.2 Dynamic spinning reserve
The DEIF ASC supports the feature "dynamic spinning reserve" in power management systems.
There are two settings, spinning reserve off-grid and grid-tied, and it depends on being grid-tied or not, which one is active.
