Technical Summary
	Engine Paralleling and Integration Control (EPIC) View Product	Cat Customizable Switchgear and Controls View Product Remove	Cat XLM Switchgear View Product Remove
Configuration	Remote modular paralleling control system (Master Control Panel for the first 2 generator sets and optional tie breaker, separate add-on control panels for up to 8 additional generator sets, utility paralleling control, and distribution control)	Application-specific switchgear with control logic designed to meet any customer's sequence of operations. Examples are 3+ Utilities, CHP applications, complex load shed schemes, etc	Configurable PLC based switchgear capable of controlling and monitoring multiple generator sets, tie, utility and load breakers for utility paralleling applications
Modes of Operation	Emergency Standby with redundant master control, Utility paralleling, peak shaving, and closed transition to/from Generator Power (with optional utility control panel)	All modes of paralleling generator sets to each other and to other sources (utility, alternative fuels, wind, etc) can be supported. Caterpillar generation and control experts can design and program the most complex power schemes to meet your critical pow	Emergency Standby, Utility Import/Export, Peak shaving, and base load operations with redundant controls and components.
