This report consists of three volumes: Volume I - 15-kW DoD Generator Set; Volume II - 30-kW DoD Generator Set; Volume III - 60-kW DoD Generator Set. Government-approved modifications to the military standard 15-kW Diesel-Engine-Driven (DED) Generator Set were made to reduce noise levels, and improve reliability. Tests performed to a government-approved test plan showed all design changes to be sound in concept. Further reliability testing should be accomplished after deficiencies resulting from testing are corrected.
