The letter T is the symbol for Caterpillar Statically Regulated Controlled Rectifier generator.3. The next letter gives an indication of the voltage rating. See chart. 4. The last group of numbers is the actual serial number of the generator in it's kW and voltage rating. If a generator is connected to give performance different from that shown on the nameplate, a new nameplate should be installed on the generator.
