Sizing it right
Generators are rated in kVA; your appliances are rated in watts. At the usual 0.8 power factor, 265 kVA gives you roughly 212 kW of running load. Leave headroom for motors: pumps, compressors and aircons draw several times their running current for a moment when they start. On a three-phase set, spread single-phase loads evenly across the phases so no phase is overloaded.
Before you order
- Send us your load list (or a photo of the main DB) and we will confirm the size before you pay.
- Ask for the data-plate standby and prime ratings if the set will run for long periods; size on the prime rating.
- Plan the changeover: the set must be connected through a changeover switch by a registered electrician, who issues the Certificate of Compliance.
- Check where it will stand: level base, airflow around the canopy, and exhaust pointed away from windows.
Covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, on top of your rights under the Consumer Protection Act. Prices include 15% VAT.
