Electronic Governor

m È0g ifl • The low idle speed, rated speed, start fuel limit &
ramp time shall be measured & recorded against the
1 Entries feed setting value.
• The actuator compensation, gain, reset, droop, load
1 C0mments feed gain & over speed settings shall be recorded against
1 WordPress.org the setting value. All setting values shall be as per
manufacturer's guidelines.

Cooling water system

• The system shall be filled with potable water with rust
inhibitor & the air shall be purged.
• The water level shall be checked & any leakage in the
system shall be checked.
• The engine shall be run at no load & the circuit
shall be checked for any leakage.
• The operation of the low coolant level sensor shall be
checked as per manufacturer's guidelines.
• The jacket water temperature high alarm & shut down
simulation shall be checked as per manufacturer's
guidelines.

Fuel Oil system

• Fuel oil system with fire valve, 2 port, motorized valve,
pressure switch & level sensor shall be checked for
proper installation with alignment.
• The tank shall be filled & the system shall be checked
for leakage.
• In case of a leak, the leak will be detected by a drip
tray mounted float switch which shall be connected to
sound an alarm.
• The engine shall be run at no load & the circuit shall
be checked for any leakage.
• The fuel oil high level & low level alarm switch shall be
checked.
• The fuel oil high level & low level pump stop switch
shall be checked.

Lube Oil system

• The system shall be filled with the oil recommended
by the manufacturer.
• The oil level shall be checked & it shall be ensured
that there are no leaks in sump & drain.
• The engine shall be started & the oil pressure shall be
observed as per manufacturer's guidelines.
• The engine shall be run at no load & the circuit shall
be checked for any leakage.
• The engine shall be stopped & the oil level shall be
h k

 checked again.
• The lube oil high temperature alarm & shut down shall
be checked as per manufacturer's guidelines.
• The lube oil low pressure alarm & shut down shall be
checked.

Generator Load Test

• The load test on the generator shall be carried out
increasing the load from 0% to 100% in steps of 25%
using load bank.
• At 0% the run time shall be 5 mins, for 25%- 10 mins,
for 50-10 mins, for 75%- 3 Hrs & for 100% — 3 Hrs.
• The fuel consumption, actual KW, line voltage, line
current, oil pressure, coolant temperature, RPM &
battery voltage shall be recorded at agreed intervals
of run time.

Digital Voltage regulator (DVR)

• It shall be confirmed 24V DC is available for the digital
voltage regulator.
• The programmable parameters shall be set to the
default values as recommended by the manufacturer.
• The generator shall be started & the view parameters
& the status of the switch parameters shall be
recorded.

Generator Sensing Panel

• During simulation test check that the appropriate
annunciation windows/alarms LEDs in the generator
sensing panel are illuminated.
• Check the ON & OFF function of the generator from
the sensing panel by simulation.
• Check the OFF function of the generator by the
emergency stop push button.

Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)

• Check the voltage availability in the line side of the

ATS. If the voltage is available, the changeover switch
remains unchanged.
• When the voltage is not available in the line side,
check for signal from the ATS to the generator sensing
panel to start generator.
• Once the generator full voltage is available at the ATS
emergency terminals, check the ATS change over to
generator supply.
