Case Study
Water Pump Station ATF Failure
When a vital water pump station faced a critical ATS failure, threatening the continuous water supply for a municipality, our team at Generator Source quickly intervened. This case study highlights our swift action and expertise in restoring essential services.
The Problem
A critical automatic transfer switch (ATS) failure, including an internal arc flash, at a city’s main water pump station led to an immediate risk of water supply disruption. Downtime for such critical infrastructure was not an option, as it could impact public health and safety.
