  • •Utility source is unavailable
  • •Generator source is unavailable
  • •Utility and generator phase rotation are not the same
  • •The highest difference of all the generator phase voltages minus the utility phases is equal to or greater than the voltage window
  • •The phase difference is equal to or greater than the phase window, or it is not decreasing
  • •The frequency difference between the sources is equal to or greater than the frequency window
