Turbomachinery Package Specification 

250 Generator Set 

Solar’s leadership in the gas turbine industry is supported by its ability to comply with 
regulations, codes, and standards required by industry and/or regional authorities around 
the world. Solar continually evaluates compliance requirements to ensure conformance to 
the following standards: 

•  National Electrical Code (NEC) 
•  Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) 
•  Conformité Européenne (CE) Mark 
•  International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Safety Assessment 
•  Australian/New Zealand Standard (AS/NZS) 3000 Wiring Rules 
•  Offshore Marine Applications 

For installations that require National Electrical Code (NEC) certification, Solar complies 
with the NEC codes and standards adopted by local authorities and government entities. 
Sources for these codes and standards include: 

•  Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 
•  National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 
•  Underwriters Laboratories Incorporated (UL) 
•  American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) 
•  National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) 

The following OSHA approved Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTLs) 
provide approval for codes and standards: 

•  Underwriters Laboratories Incorporated (UL) 
•  Factory Mutual (FM) 
•  Canadian Standards Association (CSA), when certifying to U.S. standards 
•  Entela Incorporated (ENTELA) 

(CSA and UL also develop and promulgate standards). 
The NEC establishes classification of hazardous sites in terms of Classes, Divisions, 
Zones, and material Groups. Class I covers locations where flammable gases may be 
present in quantities sufficient to ignite. Division 1 covers situations where flammable 
gases may be present as part of a process, while Division 2 covers locations where 
flammable gas is less likely to be present. Generator packages are designed for use in 
Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations. 

For installations that require Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) certification, Solar complies 
with the CEC codes and standards adopted by local authorities and government entities. 
Sources for these codes and standards include: 

•  Canadian Standards Association (CSA), electrical requirements only 
•  Entela Inc. (ENTELA), when certifying to Canadian standards 
•  Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL), when certifying to Canadian standards
