《GB/T 2820.8-2002往复式内燃机驱动的交流发电机组 第8部分:对小功率发电机组的要求和试验》由TC329(全国移动电站标准化技术委员会)归口,主管部门为中国电器工业协会。
本部分规定了由往复式内燃机驱动的陆用和船用(民用、娱乐业和工业用)小功率发电机组的要求、最低性能和型式试验。航空用发电机组除外。本部分主要适用于由往复式内燃机驱动的电压不超过500V、单相或多相、交流或直流发电机组。这类发电机组应按标准生产,并且可以从产品样本或广告中选择。在本部分中,“小功率”的含义是功率约在10kW以下。适用于本部分的小功率发电机组具有以下特征:――用户通常为非专业人员(详见3.1);――整套发电机组通常为可运输式或移动式;――电力输出采用插头插座连接方式(特低电压除外,见6.6.3);――用户无需进行任何附加安装就能使用。具备上述特点的特殊用途或功率较大的发电机组,在用户和制造商认可的前提下,也可根据本部分进行试验。在某些使用场合若需要补充有关要求,则本部分的规定可作为基矗除了在GB/T 2820.1~2820.6中适用的定义和要求外,本部分还对试验及安全性设计的具体要求做了规定。此外,为了不对用户构成伤害,本部分还规定了有关安全性要求。


1 Scope

This part defines requirements, minimum performances and type tests for low-power generating sets driven by reciprocating internal combustion engines for land and marine use (domestic, recreational and industrial application), excluding generating sets used on aircraft.

It concerns mainly low-power generating sets driven by reciprocating internal combustion engines for the generation of single or multiphase alternating current or direct current up to 500V. The generating sets are standard manufactured sets that may be selected from a commercial catalogue or leaflet.

In this part, “low power” is taken to mean power of a magnitude up to approximately 10kW.

Note: An exact determination of a power limit is not possible.

Low-power generating sets for the purpose of this part are determined by the following special features:

——the users normally are laymen (for further details see 3.1);

——the complete generating set is usually transportable, or mobile;

——the electrical output is connected by plugs and sockets (except for extra low voltages, see 6.6.3);

——the generating set is ready for use without any additional installation work by the user.

Generating sets for special applications or of higher rated power conforming to the above special features may, by agreement between manufacturer and customer, be tested in accordance with this part. If supplementary stipulations are required for certain applications, this may be done taking this part as a basis.

This part deals with the special requirements of test and safety design which should be observed in addition to the definitions and requirements laid down in GB/T 2820.1~2820.6, where applicable.

Furthermore, it lays down safety requirements in order to protect the user from danger.

3 Definitions

For the purposes of this part, the following definitions and those of GB/T 2820.1 shall apply.

3.1
layman
a person who does not necessarily recognize potential danger resulting from electricity, moving parts or hot parts (see also Section 6); the layman has a lack of training, knowledge and experience, and has insufficient knowledge of the relevant regulations

3.2
close proximity
30mm space immediately around the operating and adjusting controls and carrying handles, including their whole movement range

3.3
power rating
electric power available at the outlets or sockets of the generator, expressed in kW at the rated frequency and the rated power factor

3.4
rated power
prime power according to GB/T 2820.1, 13.3.2 as assigned by the generating set manufacturer

Note: Due to the variable power sequence for this kind of low-power generating set, the average permissible power is 90% of the rated power.

3.5
thermal steady-state condition
state reached when the temperature rise of the generator does not vary by more than 2K over a period of 1h For electrical parts, see GB 755-2000, 2.11; for reciprocating internal combustion (RIC) engines, see GB/T 6072.1.

Note: Under normal test conditions, the RIC engine has first reached a steady-state condition before a set of measurements is taken. If not, the permissible deviations for the steady-state conditions of the RIC engine according to GB/T 6072.1 apply.

3.6
uncontrolled generator
where there is no load- and speed-dependent adjustment of excitation by an automatic voltage regulator for control of terminal voltage

Note: This includes generators with directly acting load current-dependent excitation devices (compounding).

3.7
automatic voltage regulator-controlled generator
where the terminal voltage is controlled by changing the excitation current by means of an automatic voltage regulator as a function of load and speed
