ABS.6 A battery load test should be performed quately ABA.1 Weekly inspection does not require sunning of the EPS, Running unloaded generators as. part of this weekly Inspection can result in long-term problems such as wet stack ing. See Figure AS.4.1(a) and Figure A8.4.1(b) A842 Light loading creates a condition termed wet stacking, Indicating the presence of unbumed fuel or carbon, or both, in the exhaust system. Its presence is readily indicated by the presence of continuots black smoke during engine-ran opers: tion, The testing requirements of 8.4.2 are intended to reduce the possiblity of wel stacking.

There is a difference between prime and standby ratings. For example, there are usually two KW nameplate ratings found on most cenginedriven generators: “standby” and “prime.” There can be fa significant difference between the resulting kW figures when calculating 30 percent of nameplate — for example, 2 100 kW standby generator is normally considered an_ 80 EW set for prime power: 100 kW x 80% = 30 kW, but 80 kW x 30% = 24 KW.
