Abstract
An integrated resistive load bank management system (500) uses a load bank (510) to control a flow of electrical energy to an electrically operated system (520). The load bank management system uses a resistive load bank to dissipate power from a generator set (505). The load bank management system can rapidly switch an electrical connection between a load bank and the generator set and the electrically operated system and the generator set. The load bank management system can provide an instantaneous increase in power to the electrically operated system and provide a short recovery time between power pulses provided to the electrically operated system.
