applications that are less critical to life. Level 3 refers to all others. No requirements for Level 3 are in the standard. Levels 1, 2, and 3 are roughly equivalent to Emergency, Legally Required Standby, and Optional Standby in the NEC. Unique to NFPA 110 is the requirement for prototype testing of the generator set. The supplier must show proof of performance under normal and adverse conditions before installation; this avoids problems otherwise not discovered until the installation startup, or later. The standard requires about a dozen visual safety and shutdown indications at the generator set. It also calls for remote audible alarm for any of the conditions. It calls for prealarms where early attention might avoid a system shutdown. During testing the system must perform all functions with results observed and recorded. Paragraph 5-13.2.5 calls for a two-hour full nameplate kW load test. The test need not be at rated power factor if the factory test was at rated power factor. Immediately after the load test and a five-minute cooldown, the system must demonstrate that it can pick up full kW load in one step. 4.6 ASME B133.8, Gas Turbine Installation Sound Emissions This standard gives methods and procedures for specifying the sound emissions of gas turbine installations for industrial, pipeline, and utility applications. Included are practices for making field sound measurements and for reporting field data. This standard can be used by users and manufacturers to write specifications for procurement, and to determine compliance with specification after installation. Some microturbine manufacturers have used this standard as a baseline for their product’s noise profile. As it was originally written for larger gas trubine systems, however, the allowable thresholds outlined in this standard may be higher than those required by a municipal authority in a commercial or multi-unit residential setting. 4.9PDF Image | PNNL 13277
