    Standby Power for Pumping Stations

    New search for: Alexander, G. A.

    This article discusses alternatives for increasing the reliability of the power supply feeding the pumping stations in an emergency power outage, and to provide a means of running some pumps in case of a major power failure. Continuity of water supply during power interruptions can be obtained from gravity storage, use of multiple power lines, or independent engine‐driven generators or pumps. Pumping station design should include standby power requirements from the outset. The standby plant should not be tacked on as an afterthought.
