Cummins Power Generation has been designing reliable paralleling power solutions since the early 1960s for a wide range of applications. In 1995, Cummins Power Generation introduced the first fully integrated PowerCommand® digital controls across its entire range of commercial generator sets. These sophisticated controls are the industry’s only completely integrated platform which integrates the control and protection functionalities of the engine and alternator into a reliable common system.

PowerCommand® digital paralleling systems from Cummins Power Generation provide more functionality and robust controls than any other paralleling system available today. Using common control blocks with prototype-tested components these systems deliver the features and performance you require. At the heart of a Cummins paralleling system is a PowerCommand® Digital Master Control (DMC) designed to directly interface with Cummins paralleling controls and transfer switch  controls.

The DMC is designed for low or medium voltage, isolated and utility paralleling applications, providing system level functionality and controls.
