For example, 80% power factor = 0.8 for the purposes of calculations. In general, single–phase generator sets are rated at 100% power factor and three–phase generator sets at 80% power factor. • “Volts” refers to line–to–line voltage. • “Amps” refers to line current in amperes. • “F” refers to frequency. 0% frequency regulation is defined as isochronous.
