The 8444-1082 is a robust power management and generator control module from Woodward’s GCP-30 series. Designed for engine-generator sets in both standalone and parallel configurations, it integrates automatic synchronization, load sharing, and protection functions into a single industrial-grade package. This unit provides precise monitoring of electrical parameters and ensures safe, automated control of generator sets in complex power systems.
Housed in a rugged enclosure, the 8444-1082 is built to withstand high vibration and elevated temperatures typical of engine-room environments. Its integrated display and software allow operators to monitor system status, set parameters, and execute sequencing logic for start/stop and black-start operations.
