| Quantity represented | 8 identified units in the technical package | 10 units |
| Technical details / open items | Eight 3516E engine/product identities appear in the technical package, with machine-build dates from October through December 2024. The reviewed generator-set nameplate is dated February 2025.; Reviewed nameplate: 3,000 kW / 3,333 kVA, 0.9 PF, 480 V, three-phase, 60 Hz, 4,009 A and 1,800 RPM; wye series, six leads, Class H insulation.; Reviewed factory-order example: 3516E HPD, 3,000 ekW standby with fan, EMCP 4.2B controller, 5,000 A IEC busbar with top cable entry, AF81AVS radiator and dual electric starting.; That factory-order example specifies two 35 A battery chargers, no batteries ordered, no factory circuit breaker, non-UL-2200-listed package, no CSA selection and no seismic certification selection. Panel and decal selection is Portuguese. Match the actual order record to each selected unit.; Emissions records identify the 2024 engine family as EPA Emergency Stationary, constant speed. This is not a claim of prime/continuous duty or of suitability for a particular site's emissions permit.; The documented 3 MW rating is standby. A proposed lower output or duty change, including 2.75 MW operation, needs the selected-unit OEM/dealer rating and emissions review; no continuous rating or automatic conversion is promised. | 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. |

What still needs to be checked?
Confirm frequency, cooling-stage ratings, impedance and its base, taps, vector group, grounding, BIL, site conditions and included scope against the project specification. A table cannot approve the fit.
