These concepts define in which category the generator will work. Generator power ratings according to international ISO 8528-1 (this standard has been accepted as TS ISO 8528 in Turkey) are defined as follows:
Emergency Standby Power (ESP):
- It is used for variable loads in case of mains failure.
- Load factor: 70% (Cannot be overloaded.)
- Annual working time: 200 hours.
- Application Areas: Places in need of backup power such as business centers, hotels, hospitals, mass housing, recreational facilities, factories.
Prime Rated Power (PRP):
- It is the maximum power obtained from the generator set for variable load in an unlimited time period.
- Load factor: 70% (overload 10% for 1 hour at 12 hour intervals).
- Annual uptime: Unlimited.
- Field of Application: Industrial and commercial facilities, heavy construction industry, cogeneration applications, rental and marine generators.
Continuous Operation Power (COP):
- It is the power value that the generator set can give under continuous load in an unlimited time period.
- Load factor: 100%
- Field of Application: Where the Mains does not exist at all.
Data Center Power (DCP):
- It is the power value that the generator set can give under continuous load in a limited or non-limited time period.
- Annual uptime: Unlimited.
- Application Area: In data centers.
