Here is another mechanical room tour.  This one shows two Carrier 375 ton centrifugal chillers (only one is running at the moment) and a one megawatt MTU 12V2000 twin turbo emergency generator undergoing a load bank (80% of full load - 800 kW).  The turbos on this engine are so loud, they absolutely dominate everything else in the mechanical room.

Listen to those turbos scream!  1,000 amps of 480V.
