The generator on site isn't ours, it's for the county 2way equipment. The tower power comes from a different direction, so the utility fuses automatically reset and the power was restored to the tower in about a minute. Based on the sound from the camera, the generator ran for 10 minutes before shutting down. It's a 20kw propane Generac unit.

Took Fire department 13 minutes to show up on site.

I believe ours will start right away but the ATS won't swap over unless it's down for ~10 seconds. Then to go back from generator to utility it's like 3-5 minutes (feels like a long while).

    I love how quick the generator started up. They waste no time when
    the grid fails, do they? I would figure there would be a 10+
    second delay or so to see if the grid comes back up before it
    starts up.

        Always exciting when a camera is pointing in the right direction.
