Abstract

Some embodiments relate to a generator management system 10. The generator management system 10 includes a first generator 11 and a second generator 13. A bus 15 connects at least one of the first generator 11 and the second generator 13 to a load L. A control 16 determines a time delay to (i) connect the first generator 11 and the second generator 13 to the bus 15; and/or (ii) disconnect the first generator 11 and second generator 13 from the bus 15. The control 16 varies the time delay based on the load L supplied by the first generator 11 and the second generator 13.
