| Emergency standby power (ESP) | Limited to 200 hours usage per year with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published ESP rating over each 24 hour period. Limited to 200 hours usage per year with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published ESP rating over each 24 hour period. |
| Data centre power (DCP) | Power available for variable or continuous electrical loads in a data centre application. Up to 100 percent load factor of the published DCP power is permitted for unlimited time. An overload of 10 percent is permitted for one hour in every 12 hours of operation. No overload is permitted. DCP power definition relies on ISO8528-1 2018 standard to be followed by generator set manufacturer, and will support Tier I to Tier IV classifications of data centres as per UPTIME institute guidelines.
