Our site had a spinning motor / generator to regulate utility / battery / generator power. It had bearings replaced 3 weekends in a row, so they sent the shaft out to be redone. 530pm Sunday the computer switches to generator power to test. Takes a while to restart. 530pm Monday the computer switches to generator power to test. Takes a while to restart. Repeated following week before the set the computer to check the generator power first. Decided to decommission and get some space 200 miles away instead of 2.
