b. The total side yard setback requirement of Subparagraph 3-111C2(a)(iii) or 3-111C2(b)(iii) will not apply to the location of an emergency generator, and one emergency generator will be exempt from the floor area ratio requirements for the associated residential structure.
c. The operation of the emergency generator may be tested only between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. on weekdays, excluding holidays.
d. Not more than one emergency generator on a lot will be exempt from the otherwise applicable bulk and space requirements of the Zoning Code if such emergency generator complies with all of the following conditions:

2. The emergency generator does not exceed 39 inches in height, and does not exceed 53 inches in its length or width.
3. The emergency generator is located in the rear yard or the required minimum side yard and is not farther than three feet from the side or rear wall of the building or structure that the emergency generator serves.
