OverviewThe Cummins PowerCommand® Load Control Module (LCM) is a stand‑alone load management controller that regulates loads on standby generator sets to maximize available power. Built to support isolated bus topology and to align with integrated paralleling breakers, the PowerCommand LCM uses generator controls to measure and monitor systems, enabling straightforward load management and optimized generator utilization.
Key features and benefits- Supports up to six generator sets (model dependent)
- Manages up to 12 loads with eight assignable priority levels
- Color touchscreen interface with real‑time data views
- Event logging and alarm history
- Generator data monitoring and selectable kW/load settings
- Operating temperature and voltage ranges for typical industrial environments
- LED diagnostics for rapid troubleshooting
- Standard communication: Modbus TCP/IP (BACnet optional on higher DMC models)
- Certifications: IEC 61439-1, IEC 61439-2, UL 891
Certification and availabilityCertifications: IEC 61439-1; IEC 61439-2; UL 891
Product availability: North America; Africa & Middle East; Latin America; Asia Pacific; Europe
