Above 2000 kVA Generator Sets

Architecture options

Define the rating basis before comparing models

State emergency standby, prime or continuous duty together with annual hours, average load, maximum load and overload expectation. Similar kVA labels can represent different permissible duties.

Record voltage, frequency, power factor, nonlinear loads, motor steps, altitude, ambient temperature, cooling and emissions requirements. Ask for derated net output at project conditions.
