GB/T 2820.5-1997 in English

本标准对由1台往复式内燃(RIC)发动机和1台交流(a.c.)发电机组合为1个单使用时出现的术语作了定义和设计准则作了规定。本标准适用于由陆用和船用RIC发动机驱动的a.c.发电机组，不适用于航空或驱动陆上车辆和机车的发电机组。对于某些特殊用途(例如必要的医院供电、高层建筑等)，附加要求可能是必需的，本标准规定应作为基矗对于由其他型式的往复式原动机(例如沼气发动机、蒸汽发动机)驱动的发电机组，本标准规定可用作基矗

Scope

This standard defines the terms that appear when a reciprocating internal combustion (RIC) engine and an alternating current (ac) generator are used as a unit and specifies the design criteria. This standard applies to ac generating sets powered by RIC engines for land and marine use, and does not apply to generating sets for aviation or for driving land vehicles and locomotives. For some special purposes (such as necessary hospital power supply, high-rise buildings, etc.), additional requirements may be necessary, and the provisions of this standard should be used as the basis. For generator sets driven by other types of reciprocating prime movers (eg biogas engines, steam engines), the provisions of this standard can be used as a basis.
