A320 ELEC Failures

A320, in case of AC Bus 1 failure and Eng Gen 2 failure, is it possible for Eng Gen 1 to supply AC Bus 2 or would this situation lead to Elec Emer configuration?
In accordance with the Fcom schematic, it seems possible for an Eng Gen to supply the opposite AC bus as the relevant contactors are located before AC buses 1 and 2.
Is this correct?
Thanks!

..ok, fair enough, but my question was what would happen if, following AC Bus 1 failure, Eng Gen 2 fails too. In this case, can Eng Gen 1 supply AC Bus 2 even though AC Bus 1 is faulty? I mean, the relevant contactor seems to be located after the Eng Gen and before the relevant AC Bus (1 or 2), therefore, I reckon, in such a case, Eng Gen 1 can supply the Whole network, except for AC bus 1 which is faulty.
Am I right?

Assuming that the loss of AC1 has not impacted the normal operation of GEN1 and it's associated contactors then yes, GEN 1 would supply AC2.
