BCP BC-XC33D-60 generator set (33 kVA -60 Hz) is a 33 kVA diesel generator set at 60 Hz, fitted with a BCP engine and mounted on a skid with direct coupling to the alternator.
The 33 kVA figure is the set’s apparent power; at a 0.8 power factor it corresponds to 26.4 kW of active power. Confirm whether the installation calls for standby or prime duty: the same machine supports both readings and the permissible load differs between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much load can I actually connect?
Take the set rating in kW (26.4 kW) and allow for motor starting: an electric motor may draw 3 to 7 times its rated current during start-up. If your main load is motors, oversize the set relative to the sum of kW.
What separates this reference from another set of equal rating?
The BC-XC33D-60 code is the commercial reference of the set. Between two sets of the same rating the difference lies in the engine, the alternator and the level of control equipment; always compare by datasheet, not by kVA alone.
