TM5-6115-593-34 NAVFAC P-8-631-34 TO-35C2-3-463-2 CHAPTER 15 MATERIEL USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE GENERATOR SET 15-1. GENERAL. Auxiliary equipment used in conjunction with the generator set includes the remote control module and cable, the automatic control module, and the housing kit. The. remote control module allows remote start, stop, monitoring and control of single or parallel operation of generator sets. Control devices on the remote control panel are similar to the control panel on the generator set control cubicle. It is connected to the generator set by a 1000 foot (300 m) cable. The automatic control module provides an unattended automatic control system. When the automatic system requires one to four generator sets to support the load, one automatic control module is required. The housing kit encloses the generator set with shutters and access doors. It is attached to the generator set support frame assembly and the base assembly. The housing kit assembly louvers are automatically controlled by a mechanical linkage, motor-driven system. Auxiliary equipments also include a fuel hose, two electrical male connectors, and two sling assemblies. Section I. MAINTENANCE OF REMOTE CABLE ASSEMBLY 15-2. REMOTE CONTROL CABLE. The remote control cable assembly is used to connect the remote control module to the generator set. The cable assembly may be of any length up to a maximum of 1000 feet (300 m). 15-3. INSPECTION. Inspect cable assembly for damaged connectors, loose pins, poor and loose electrical connections, and damaged cable. 15-4. REPLACEMENT. The remote cable assembly is connected from J2, J1, and J4 connectors at the rear of the generator set control cubicle to the rear of the remote control module at connectors J2, J1, and J4. Cable (6, figure 15-1) is a 25-conductor, AWG 14 wire with PVC jacket and two connectors P2 (2) at each end. Cable (5) is a 37-conductor, AWG 14 wire with two connectors P1 and P4 (1 and 3) at each end. The cable is assembled with self-locking tie wraps (4) approximately 6 inches (152 mm) apart. Refer to Chapter 10 for detail interconnection data and wire list. 15-5. REPAIR. Test each parallel wire for continuity. Be sure wire is not shorted either to the connector, or to another wire. Wire routing is common between like pins of connectors: E to E, D to D, etc. Wires are AWG 14, 1000 feet long (300 m), and color coded. When replacing connectors, solder in accordance with requirements 5 of MIL-STD-454. Section II. MAINTENANCE OF REMOTE CONTROL MODULE 15-6. GENERAL. This section contains maintenance information on the synchroscope, relays, circuit card, and flashing circuit. The troubleshooting procedures contained in tables 5-2 and 5-3, of the Operator and Organizational Maintenance manual completely isolate any faults that may occur. For maintenance of other remote control module components, refer to the Operator and Organizational Maintenance manual. 15-7. SYNCHROSCOPE. a. Inspection. Inspect the synchroscope for loose electrical connections, damaged case, or scratched glass. b. Testing. (1) Connect the synchroscope as shown in figure 15-2 test setup. Frequency generators used should be capable of providing minimum 50 volts, maximum 240 volts. Frequency 0 to 60 Hz. For testing, the pull-in frequency is 47 Hz. (2) The synchroscope axial 15-1
