Can the power generated by the plant’s own power plant be considered as one source of power?

Chemical plants require two power supplies, but this is difficult to achieve in practice. Can the power generated by the plant’s own power plant be considered as one source of power?

Well, never mind. It’s just necessary that the backup power plant can provide continuous power supply during power outages. However, having a private power plant is more difficult than having two power supplies. If just one more power supply is connected to these two circuits, the investment required will be much lower, and power supply will also be more reliable.

Could you explain what standards are used?

A self-provided power source is considered a dual-power supply; for the specific definition, refer to the \"Design Code for Power Supply and Distribution Systems\". According to building codes, self-provided power generation equipment must have both manual and automatic start functions, with the automatic start ensuring power supply within 30 seconds. If the process requirements are more stringent, the electrical system can be designed to ensure a seamless transition, so that electrical equipment continues to operate without interruption when the power supply is switched. I’m not sure exactly how this is achieved; it’s likely that uninterruptible power supplies are used as a buffer.

It’s possible, but if it cannot connect to the internet, it can be considered an isolated network. An isolated network does not operate stably, especially when there are few units available
