Concrete platforms and mounting arrangements for generator sets This information sheet is a guide to the location and mounting of engine-driven generator set systems. Correctly mounted stationary generator systems will give years of dependable service. The system designer has the responsibility to follow good practice, codes and any local ordinances. A system designer must consider the following factors when designing the mounting system: Location: If the generator set cannot be placed on the ground, the site’s building engineer must confirm the structure is able to support the weight of the generator set and address the following considerations. Load bearing requirements: The total weight of the fuel tanks, batteries, radiators, mounting pads and other accessories must be included in addition to the weight of the generator set. An outside installation will likely have mounted accessories. (Diagram 1) Fire codes: Follow good practice plus NFPA and applicable local fire codes. Protection from flooding: Indoor and outdoor locations should be protected against flooding and other potential water damage. Outdoor installations should include an appropriate weather-protected enclosure and be mounted on a pad that sits above known flood levels. Chec
