set installation. For fixed installed generating sets
the need of guarding shall be agreed between
generating set manufacturer and installer
considering that the persons shall be protected
during operating and routine servicing.

Because it is not possible to envisage the layout of N/A

fixed installation the overall requirements for this
situation are not dealt with in this standard. The
following clauses give the requirements for the
specific hazards and these principles shall be
followed for any installation.

6.7.2 Guarding against hot surfaces
The hazard a hot surface presents depends on the P

likely to touch it. A guard shall be provided to prevent
accidental contact with any engine exhaust

EN 12601: 2001
Clause Requirement - Test Result - Remark Verdict

To decide if there is a measure needed, EN 563 P

should be used as a guide for evaluating the limit
temperature of the hot surfaces. The guards used
shall not exceed the permissible temperatures as
defined in EN 563 under normal operating
conditions, which are at continuous power according
to ISO 8528-1.
In order to define the surfaces which may need a P
guard, the following described test procedure shall
be used.

The generating set shall be operated at its rated

speed until the surface temperatures stabilize. The
test shall be conducted in the shade. If the test is
conducted at an ambient temperature outside of the
nominal 20 C±3 C the reported temperatures shall
o o

be determined by correcting the observed

temperature by adding the difference between the 20
o
C and the actual test ambient temperature. When
the distance between the identified hot area and the
nearest control is in excess of 100 mm, cone A as
shown in figure 1 shall be used. For distances less
than 100 mm between the identified hot area and the
nearest control, cone B as shown in figure 1 shall be
used. For cone A with the axis of the cone anywhere
0 and 180 to the horizontal and with the point of the
o o

cone in a downward to horizontal direction, move the

cone towards the hot surface. The cone shall not be
moved in an upwards direction. When moving the
cone, determine if contact is made with the hot
surface area(s) with the cone tip or conical surface
of the cone. Cone B shall be moved in any direction.
Any surface that cannot be reached by the cones is P
considered out of reach for the operator.
For low power generating sets 6.4 of ISO 8528- Not low power generating sets N/A
8:1995 shall apply
6.7.3 Guarding against electrical shock by enclosures
The requirements of 6.2.2 of EN 60204–1:1997 shall IP23 P
be met.
6.8 Guard design
The requirements for guarding and guard device laid P
down in 6.8 of EN 1679-1:1998 shall apply.

Clause Requirement - Test Result - Remark Verdict

It shall only be possible for the fixed guards to be P

removed using tools (6.3.2 of ISO 8528-8:1995).
Movable guards shall be interlocked according to EN N/A
1088.
6.9 Lighting
If the generating set manufacturer supplies a Light on the control box, P
generating set that includes lighting, the area around powered by battery
the control levers, monitoring devices and
corresponding walkways shall be illuminated with an
intensity of at least 20 lux.

6.10 Handling

Generating sets shall have provisions for lifting Provided the lifting P
attachments to attach lifting devices to lift the attachments
generating set or parts of it according to the Tested with 1,5 times of the
manufacturers instructions. The lifting attachments product mass
shall be designed to withstand at least 1,5 times the
mass lifted divided by the number of lifting
attachments.

The lifting attachments and their location shall Comply with 6.10 of EN 1679- P
comply with 6.10 of EN 1679-1:1998. For mobile 1:1998
used low power generating sets the mechanical
stability to prevent tip-over shall comply with 6.2 of
ISO 8528-8:1995.

Generating sets intended for transportation by N/A

persons (below 140 kg) shall have carrying handles
or an adequate frame design to transport it
according to the manufacturers manual. The
handles shall be designed to withstand at least 2,5
times the mass lifted divided by the number of
carrying handles.

Because individual generating sets are either N/A

designed with handles or use the frame for carrying
purposes it is not possible to prescribe the exact
number or layout of handles. As a basis for providing
means of carrying the generating set it is considered
that a 140 kg set should be provided with the means
of carrying by 4 Persons.

Introduction
Generating sets are considered as machines as P
defined in the machinery directive. For this reason,
the basic standard EN 60204-1 shall be used for
the subject electric equipment. In the introduction of
this standard reference is being made to its
application, when preparing product standards for
the various product families.
The following list shows which subclauses of EN P
60204-1 are either not applicable to generating sets
or supplements are necessary. If different
requirements to those of EN 60204-1 have to be
met, they are given in the following list. In those
cases the complete subclauses of EN 60204-1 are
substituted and not valid.
Those clauses of EN 60204-1 which are not P
mentioned in the following list are applicable and
have to be met.
1 SCOPE
The equipment, which is covered by the following P
requirements as well as the requirements of EN
60204-1, commences for generating sets at the
output terminals of the generator.
If generating sets, operating standby-to mains or N/A
parallel to mains, and the equipment of generating
sets is supplied with power supply from the main
supply net, those requirements commences at the
point of connection of the supply.
