generators

(OP)
I have two 800kva genarators running simultaneously upon mains failure the amf panel shall automatically start up the gensets and close the generator breakers whilst opening the mains switch in the the changeover panel.The generator sets would then feed the feeder pillar.And the opposite is true when the mains power is restored.The problem that i have is that;
A,When mains power is restored and the generator is off the LV Panel for genset 2 does not pick automatically.This then means the LV panel has to be restored manually.

B;The changeover panel does not kick in after mains power failure even if the gensets are running.This means that during mains power failure the building is not serviced.MERLIN GERLIN CIRCUIT BREAKERS(M25NI MASTERPACT)  

RE: generators

OK, is there a question in there? Sounds like an unfortunate situation but there is no where near enough detail in there to even begin to speculate what might be wrong.
