PART 1
GENERAL
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This specification is for procurement of
engine-generator sets which are suitable for serving
general purpose and commercial-grade loads (loads
which may be served by an electric utility). These
are loads which can endure or recover quickly from
transient voltage and frequency changes (as much as
30 percent transient voltage drop, and plus or minus
5 percent frequency deviation, with recovery time of
2 seconds). For applications where strict control
of voltage, frequency, and transient response is
required, provide uninterruptible power supplies or
utilize UFGS-16263A. This specification is for
procurement of engine-generator sets for standby,
stand-alone applications. For prime or parallel
