Max Starting Load For DG Generator
Max Starting Load For DG Generator
(OP)
I have a DG set datasheet that specifies the maximum starting kVA which are as follows:
Max %VD P.F. Load
15% 10% 10.2MVA
15% 40% 10.9MVA
15% 80% 15.0MVA
Is this applicable if the generator is pre-loaded and I started a motor?
SkVA = Running kVA + Motor Starting kVA (largest motor)
Max %VD P.F. Load
15% 10% 10.2MVA
15% 40% 10.9MVA
15% 80% 15.0MVA
Is this applicable if the generator is pre-loaded and I started a motor?
SkVA = Running kVA + Motor Starting kVA (largest motor)

I would go back to the mfg. and ask. Most have free sizing software that will allow you to check it out by looking at different scenarios of starting with and without pre load.
