What This Engine Is Built For
The Cummins NTA855-G2A is a 6-cylinder diesel generator set of 14L with a 145×152 mm bore and stroke supplied by MEP Power as a complete assembly. It is rated at 350 kVA at 1500 rpm. The engine is turbocharged and water cooled. Typical duty is prime and standby power on site.
Key Benefits
- Delivers 350 kVA at 1500 rpm from 14L as a factory-rated assembly.
- Turbocharged induction with water cooling keeps charge temperature under control in continuous duty.
- Published fuel consumption of 204 L/hr makes running cost predictable.
- Output 400/230V at 50HZ as supplied, matched at the factory.
- Supplied as a complete engine assembly, so the unit goes straight onto the mounts
- Backed by a written warranty of one year or 1000 hours, whichever comes first
Application Scenarios
- Factory standby power
- Data centre and hospital backup
- Off-grid site and mine power
- Rental power package
Who It Is For
- Factories and processing plants needing standby power for the whole site
- Hospitals, data centres and office buildings with critical loads
- Construction sites and mines working off-grid
- Contractors supplying rental power packages
Problems It Solves
- An outage costs more per hour than the set itself.
- Sets assembled from mismatched parts never reach their rated output.
- Remote sites cannot wait weeks for a spare part to be identified.
- Identifying the right NTA855-G2A variant from a serial number takes experience; MEP Power checks the configuration before quoting.

How It Compares
| Compared with | What to consider |
|---|---|
| A rebuilt or used engine of the same rating | A rebuilt unit may show the same 350 kVA on paper, but its running history is unknown and the warranty rarely covers the whole engine. |
| A larger engine in the same NTA855 range | Moving up a frame size adds weight, envelope and fuel burn; specify the next size up only if the duty cycle really needs the headroom. |
| A non-Cummins engine of similar output | Parts and service for Cummins families are available in most markets, which matters more over ten years than the purchase price on day one. |
