Generator management system that determines a time to activate and deactivate generators based on the load level

Some embodiments relate to a generator management system (10). The generator management system 10 includes a first generator (11) and a second generator (13). A bus (15) connects at least one of the first generator (11) and the second generator (13) to a load (L). A control (16) determines a time delay to (i) connect the first generator (11) and the second generator (13) to the bus (15); and/or (ii) disconnect the first generator (11) and second generator (13) from the bus (15). The control (16) varies the time delay based on the load (L) supplied by the first generator (11) and the second generator (13).
