When the building switches from emergency power back to normal what is a normal delay time? I did some testing in one of my buildings last night. The timer was set at 45 mins on the transfer back to normal. This seemed a little excessive. Am I in the wrong here. Seems like most buildings I have done testing in 15 mins was the longest I ever had to wait. The building engineer and electrician had no idea how to shorten the timer. Those two didnt know alot of things.
