CONTROL
1.Engine Cranking: Means CK1 & CK2 contactors closing and battery supply is
feeding to main generator to work as a motor to crank the
Diesel engine.
Result : Switch on all the lighting breakers and switches (except doom light
and flasher light) , lamps will glow.
Result: FPC contactor coil will be energized and with click sound contactor
will close.
Result: CCE motor failure indication will goes off and CCEM starts
working.
Result:
i) Fuel pump motor will start and fuel oil pressure will build up to
3.8 kg/cm2.
ii) Engine starting lamp will glow.
In governor, stabilizing coil will energize with click sound.
h. ECS to be kept in run position for 3 times.
Result: With low lube oil indication SR will energize and bell will ring.
123
Diesel Traction Training Centre/Guntakal
i. MUSD in both control stands must be in run condition.
j. ECS must be in idle condition.
k. Start button to be pressed (This will have two switches).
Result: (Switch no.1) : Through ESR-4 N/C interlock, through ECS RUN
closed interlock, through start button, through P-22 power contactor
N/C interlock, through S1 power contactor N/C interlock , CK1
contactor will pick up. Through CK1 closed bridge interlock, CK2
contactor will energize
When CK1 and CK2 contactors are closed, Generator will work as a
motor and engine is going to crank.
Result: Fuel racks will move towards Fuel increasing and engine will
get firing.
3. Holding: If engine starting lamp goes off, leave start button. Engine will
run on its own then it is called Holding.
a) SAR will pick up whenever engine speed reaches more than
220 RPM.
b) OPS will pickup whenever lube oil pressure builds up 1.6
kg/cm2
Result: Clutch coil will get permanent supply and engine will hold.

1. DMR ENERGISING :
a. MCB1 & MCB2 to be switched on (closed) on both the control stands.
b. Throttle handle in idle and selector handle “0” , 1, 2, 3, 4 position in
working control stand.
c. Throttle handle in idle and selector handle ‘0’, 1, 2, 3, 4 position in non
working control stand.
d. PCS must be in normal position (closed).
2. ESRs ENERGISING :
a. Through MUSD1 closed switch and MUSD2 closed switch in both control
stands for throttle handle supply readily available.
b. Through throttle handle inter locks ESR relays will energise.
c. ESR 4 will get power directly from DMR self interlocks(it is not under
control of MUSD 1&2)
Throttle handle 1, 2, 3, 4 notches engine speed is not raising and in 5th notch
engine is shutting down “MUSD1 or MUSD2” switches may be defective or wire
cut.

1. Engine Cranking : It means CK1 & CK2 contactors closing and battery supply
is feeding to main generator to work as a motor to crank the Diesel engine.
a. Battery knife switch to be switched on.
b. MB1 (Battery) breaker to be switch held on.
Result : Battery discharging lamp (Auxiliary Generator failure) indication will
glow
c. MB2 (control) breaker to be switched on.
Result: switch on all the lighting breakers and switches, ( except doom light
and flasher light) lamps will glow.
d. MFPB1 & MFPB2 to be switched “on” on both control stands.
Result : FPC contactor coil will be energized and with click sound contactor
will close
e. If FPC contactor closed properly,
Result: CCE motor failure indication will glow.
f. CCEM breaker to be switched on.
Result: CCE motor failure indication will goes off.. and CCEM starts working.
g. FPB breaker to be switched on.
Result: Fuel pump motor will start and fuel oil pressure will build up to
3.8 kg/cm2.
h. MUSD in both control stands must be in run condition.
i. ECS must be in idle, condition
j. Start button to be pressed.
Result: Through ECS idle closed interlock, through engine start button
closed switches, through P 22 power contactor N/C interlock, through S1
power contactor N/C interlock , through MUSDR relay N/C switch (Run) CK1
contactor will pick up. Through Ck1 closed bridge interlock, CK2 contactor
will pickup.
When CK1 & CK2 contactors are closed, generator will work as motor and
engine is going to crank.
