DIN | 2017-03 | 52 |
This part of ISO 8528 specifies the safety requirements for reciprocating internal combustion (RIC) engine driven generating sets up to 1000 V consisting of a RIC engine, an alternating current (a.c.) generator including the additional equipment required for operating, e. g. controlgear, switchgear, auxiliary equipment. It applies to generating sets for land and marine use (domestic, recreational and industrial application), excluding generating sets used on board of seagoing vessels and mobile offshore units as well as on aircraft or to propel road vehicles and locomotives. NOTE This standard does not apply to arc welding equipment (IEC 60974 Series). The special requirements needed to cover operation in potentially explosive atmospheres are not covered in this standard. The hazards relevant to RIC engine driven generating sets are identified in Annex A. This part of ISO 8528 deals with the special requirements of test and safety design which should be observed in addition to the definitions and requirements laid down in ISO 8528 parts 1 to 6, where applicable. It lays down safety requirements in order to protect the user from danger.
