Identically adopts ISO 9249:2007, which specifies a method for testing the net power of reciprocating internal combustion engines intended for the propulsion of earth-moving machinery as defined in ISO 6165. It is intended to provide a standardized means of reporting net power values to the end user of the earth-moving machines. It is applicable to RIC spark- or compression-ignition engines, but excluding free piston engines, and rotary piston engines.KEYWORDS: Reciprocating internal combustion engines; Earth-moving test code net power; RIC spark-ignition engines; RIC compression-ignition engines.
