Rating definitions
Baseload power
Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 100 percent of the published Baseload power rating. No overload is permitted.

Prime power
Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published Prime power over each 24-hour period.
A 10 percent overload is available for 1 hour in every 12 hours operation.

Data Centre Power (DCP)4

Power available for variable or continuous electrical loads in a Data Centre application. Up to 100 percent load factor is permitted for unlimited time.
An overload of 10 percent permitted for 1 hour in every 12 hours of operation. DCP Power definition relies on ISO8528-1 2018 standard to be
followed by generator set manufacturer, and will support Tier I to Tier IV classifications of Data Centres as per UPTIME institute guidelines.

Standby power
Limited to 500 hours usage with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published Standby power rating over each 24-hour period.
Up to 300 hours of annual usage may be run continuously. No overload is permitted.

Footnotes:
1. Data included in the energy balance table should not be used for combined heat and power (CHP) purposes.
2. Not to be utilised for heat recovery, does include energy input from combustion air.
3. Includes heat rejected to fuel via return to tank flow.
4. All Data Centre projects must be approved by Perkins, prior to tender submission. Project details must be submitted to Perkins sales representative to obtain approval.
