(2) The unusually severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the contractor.
b. The following schedule of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays due to precipitation and temperature is based on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or similar data for the project location and will constitute the base line for monthly weather time evaluations.
The contractor's progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse weather delays in all weather dependent activities. Wind is not considered in the Monthly Anticipated Adverse Weather Calendar Day Schedule.

b. System closes the first generator set achieving 90 percent of rated voltage to paralleling bus.
c. "Priority load add" controls prevent overloading of system.

b. Priority controller prevents overload of system bus.
c. Manual override of priority controller at HMI allows addition of low-priority load to bus.
d. Bus overload monitor protects bus from manual overloading.
3. Bus Overload:

c. Loads shed can be reconnected to bus only by manual reset at HMI.
4. Load-Demand Mode:
a. With "load-demand" function activated, controller continuously monitors total bus load.
b. If bus load is below preset limits for 15 minutes, demand controller shuts down generator sets in predetermined order until minimum number of sets are operating.
c. On sensing available bus capacity diminished to set point, controller starts and closes generator sets to bus to accommodate load.
5. Return to Normal Power:
a. Process starts on removal of start signals from system.
b. When no load remains on paralleling bus, all generator breakers open, go through cool-down period, and shut down.
c. If start signal is received during cool-down period, one generator set is reconnected to bus, and system operation follows that of "loss of normal power."
