What are the classifications of diesel generator sets based on their usage

Diesel generator sets are classified by purpose as follows:

1. Common Unit: This type of generator set operates year-round, usually with a large capacity, providing continuous power supply to non constant loads. There is no limit to the duration of continuous operation, and there is 1 hour of overload power supply time every 12 hours of operation. The overload capacity is 10% of the rated output power. Generally located in areas far from the power grid or near industrial and mining enterprises, to meet the electricity needs of construction, production, and daily life in this area. Due to its long running time and heavy load, many powers relative to the maximum power of the machine are adjusted to lower points.

2. Backup unit: A backup unit is a generator set set up to meet the basic production and living needs of users during power outages or other terminal power supply reasons. Regularly located in important power consuming units such as telecommunications departments, hospitals, industrial and mining enterprises with tight power supply, airports, and television stations. This type of unit is always in standby mode, capable of providing continuous power supply to non constant loads, and has no limit on the duration of continuous operation.

3. Emergency Unit: An emergency unit is a device that quickly starts and operates in the event of a sudden interruption in the mains power supply, and provides stable AC power to the load in the shortest possible time to ensure timely power supply to the load. It is equipped with fire protection systems, evacuation lighting, elevators, automatic production control systems, important communication systems, and medical equipment that is performing important surgeries on patients.
