Hard fault

Hard faults are extremely rare situations where multiple failures occur at the same time, and the system
is not capable of holding the voltage any longer.
In the case of hard-parallel configuration, the remaining units will support the load (N+1 configuration,
for instance). If the load power exceeds the remaining units overload capability, the system will be
commuted to bypass mode.
