DG set rating sound level checklist

Diesel Generator

Diesel Generator Set Produces = 3.87 Units (KWH) in 1 Litter of Diesel.
Typical Requirement room size for DG set: for 25KW to 50KW = 10-30 Square meter, 62.5-100KVA = 30-45 Sq.meter.
DG noise levels to be less than 75dBA at 1 meter.
DG fuel storage tanks should be a maximum of 990 Litter per unit. Storage tanks above this level will trigger more stringent explosion protection provision.

Nominal rating in KVA
7.5,10,12.5,15,17.5,25,30,35,40,50,62.5,75,82.5,110,125,140,200,225,250,320,350,380,380,415,450,500,550,600,625,700,750,1010,1250,1500.
KVA                                                   Max. Sound Level

22. Measure & record PI (polarization Index) value. It should be greater than 2.
23. Continuity check for windings.
24. Ensure that the winding resistance values are equal in all the phases.
25. Earth resistance value (ensure that it is within recommended value)
26. Continuity of earthing conductor.
27. Whether the enclosure provides ease of maintenance.
28. Adequate shed with rain protector provided.
29. Whether earth pit no. earth resistance value & test date have been written on the earth pit
cover or by any convenient means.
30. Whether Location/ position of earth pit maintainable.
31. The gen sets should have nomenclature such as G1, G2, Set -1, Set 2 etc. for ease of
identification.

 In case of Acoustic Enclosure
Check the following:
a. Measure the noise level to ensure that it is as per CPCB norms. (Max 70db within 1
metre as per CPCB norms)
b. Adequacy of Illumination inside the enclosure
c. Functionality of Gas Detector.
d. Functionality of Emergency Shut Down Switch
e. Functionality of Blower fans
f. Remove any oil spillage.

Alternator Control panel
The followings shall be checked:
a. Check for any damage.
b. Check and tight Foundation Bolts.
c. Check for proper cabling and termination.
d. Check whether appropriate cable lugs/ sockets are used.
e. Earthing connections.
f. Checking and testing of protection scheme and relays
g. Check set values of protective component / equipment
34. After Generator is started, check following
a. Voltage building up at all the phases.
b. Excitation voltage.
c. Excitation current.
