Using Timed Pump Shutdown to Reduce Unnecessary Auxiliary Power

Thu, 08 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A utility water pump was identified as a potential source of avoidable auxiliary power consumption.

The pump was normally started when different plant users required water for temporary activities such as cleaning, civil work, or other utility requirements.

The issue was not equipment failure.

The pump could remain running after the actual water requirement had ended because the person requesting the water and the operator controlling the pump were not always the same person.
