Our speaker will bring along a 60 kw rental unit for some hands-on presentation and discussion. He will discuss rating requirements, cabling requirements, output voltage capabilities, site access, re-fueling requirements, environmental issues (noise levels, emissions and fuel storage) and general cost information.  For the start and test portion, our speaker will discuss examples from specifications based on his experience, as well as some of the obstacles and challenges in meeting the specification.  He will discuss reactive vs resistive load bank testing at the jobsite, placement of the load bank, access to the site, NFPA 110 testing and coordination, transient monitoring and recording, fuel tank pressure testing and site readiness for the test.
