Compare equipment before you request it.
Review the published facts side by side. Matching a voltage or MVA rating does not establish compatibility. Ask your project engineer to review the complete unit records.

| Technical details / open items | Two units offered by J&J on October 29, 2026. The repeated tag photos document one unit, rather than two distinct serial-number records.; Photographed Caterpillar nameplate: 3516C engine model; standby duty; 2,000 kW / 2,500 kVA at 0.8 power factor. This is a standby rating; no prime or continuous output is established by the supplied tag.; Electrical nameplate: 480 V, three-phase, 60 Hz, 3,007 A and 1,800 RPM; wye, series connection with six leads.; October 2016 manufacture is shown on the photographed generator-set nameplate. Confirm the second unit’s manufacture date, ratings, electrical configuration and matching records before allocation.; Class H insulation; frame 1625; rated ambient 40 °C and altitude 1,000 m. NEMA temperature rise 125 °C by resistance; UL maximum temperature rise 135 °C by resistance.; Excitation: 56 V and 4.6 A. The supplied tag also records the alternator reactance and time-constant values, available for the engineering review.; Caterpillar identifies the 3516C model family as diesel generator sets. No unit-specific emissions tier, emissions permit suitability, load-bank result, warranty, low-hour claim or refurbishment claim is established by these photos.; Contact Tommy Marco at 346-276-9540 or tommy@jjtransformers.com for unit pricing, hours, maintenance history, inspection and an itemized equipment and delivery scope. | Ten Wärtsilä / Wartsila 9.4 MW generating units offered through J&J.; 9.4 MW each × 10 units = 94 MW aggregate stated unit capacity; net site output depends on the equipment configuration, auxiliaries and operating conditions.; The exact engine model, fuel type, installed frequency, voltage, duty rating, hours and maintenance history are supplied with the technical package.; Ask about the required quantity, included generating equipment, inspection arrangements, unit pricing, loading and release schedule. Complete power plant scope is established separately in writing. |
| Evidence reviewed | J&J-supplied equipment and nameplate photos; detailed ratings verified on one photographed unit; quantity of two confirmed by J&J on October 29, 2026 | Equipment availability supplied by J&J on October 26, 2026; matching technical records provided with the unit quotation |
| Technical value basis | Technical values transcribed from the photographed Caterpillar generator-set nameplate. These values apply to the documented unit; obtain the second unit’s matching nameplate before final selection. | Equipment availability supplied by J&J on October 26, 2026; matching technical records provided with the unit quotation |
| Details to confirm | Second-unit nameplate, manufacture date, serial identity and matching electrical ratings; Operating hours, starts, service history and present operating condition for each unit; Inspection and load-bank test records; unit-specific emissions configuration and site requirements; Final included auxiliaries, controls, fuel equipment, removal, loading, freight, warranty and release terms | Matching technical records, current condition, complete equipment scope and transport details |
