The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IsO technical liaison with IsO, also take part in the work. IsO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Intermational Standard ISO 3977-1 was prepared by Technical Committee TC 192, Gas turbines. This first edition of ISO 3977-1, together with subsequent parts, cancels and replaces iSO 3977:1991, which has been technically revised. ISO 3977 consists of the following parts, under the general title: Gas turbines -- Procurement Part 1: General introduction and definitions Part 2: Standard reference conditions and ratings Part 3: Basic requirements for mechanical drive and electric drive . Part 4: Packaging and auxiliary equipment Part 5: Controls and instrumentation Further parts are in preparation. Annex A of this part of ISO 3977 is for information only.

This International Standard provides a basis for the submission of proposals in line with the different environmental Because of the very widely varying operating modes for gas turbines in practice, distinct categories of operating modes are specified with which a "standard" rating can be associated. These ratings are made on the basis of the IsO standard ambient reference conditions. The various parts of isO 3977 define a standard framework for dealing with questions of fuel and other matters. considered in its entirety.
