Reciprocating internal combustion engine driven alternating current generating sets — Part 3: Alternating current generators for generating sets (ISO 8528-3:2020)
This document specifies the principal characteristics of alternating current (a.c.) generators underthe control of their excitation control system when used for reciprocating internal combustion (RIC)engine driven generating set applications and supplements the requirements given in IEC 60034-1. Itcovers the use of such a.c. generators for land and marine applications, excluding generating sets usedon aircraft or to propel land vehicles and locomotives.NOTE For some specific applications (e.g. essential hospital supplies, high-rise buildings, operation parallelwith the grid), supplementary requirements can be necessary. The provisions of this document can be regardedas the basis for establishing any supplementary requirements.For a.c. generating sets driven by other reciprocating-type prime movers (e.g. steam engines) theprovisions of this document can be used as basis for establishing these requirements.
