This part of ISO 8528 specifies the requirements and parameters for the specification and design of a reciprocating internal combustion (RIC) engine driven generating set, with reference to the definitions given in ISO 8528-1 to ISO 8528-6.
It applies to alternating current (a.c.) generating sets driven by RIC engines for land and marine use, ex-cluding generating sets used on aircraft or to propel land vehicles and locomotives.
For some specific applications (for example, essential hospital supplies, high-rise buildings, etc.) sup-plementary requirements may be necessary. The provisions of this part of ISO 8528 should be regarded as a basis.
For other reciprocating-type prime movers (e.g. sew-age gas engines, steam engines), the provisions of this part of ISO 8528 should be used as a basis.
