GENERAL REMARKS

The standards, codes and regulations discussed in this section serve as the base for the technical realisation of the
systems and components as part of this offer.
GEs design standards incorporate appropiate features of industry codes and standards to the extent that they closely
approximate the conditions of the turbogenerator applications. The power island equipment is built to USA and
some international codes and standards as indicated in subsequent categories.
Balance of plant equipment will comply with the current revision of the standards indicated in this chapter.
