Alternative Supplies

Generator

We install Generators in all sizes.

Petrol or Diesel - Single-Phase or 3-Phase

Manual Change-Over Switch or Automatic-Switch

We measure and calculate the right size for your needs and help you to find the right supplier.

The Power of Generator, UPS and Inverter is most labeled with KVA.. It depends on the efficienci factor but roughly KVA x 0.7 = KW

Generators with more Power coming most with Diesel Motors

If you need a 5-10KVA generator for remaining power (mobile snack-bar, weekend house, farm work, ..) you should decide for a Diesel Generator or a Petrol Generator with 2 cylinder. A NO-NAME Generator is here not always the best solution.

Latest by a supply with 3x150A or more you should go for an Change-Over Switch operating with contactors.

An AUTOMATIC Change-Over Switch is always and for each Generator possible. The Generator starts in this moment automaticly when the Power trips.

A common size to bridge the power-supply for some hours (Power-Failure) in a Household or small Business is a 5 to 7.5 KVA petrol (1-Cylinder Motor) Generator

This size is enough to run your lights, fridge, TV, computers, etc. and a kettle or 1-2 plates on your stove.

Just switch off the geyser and pumps at the DB (elec. Distribution Board)

To reduce the noise there a sound-damping boxes on the market or you fix your own.

Standard is a Manual Change-Over Switch installed close to your DB. But of course a more expensive Automatic Change-Over is possible as well.

We deliver and install Single or 3-Phase Generators for Household and small Business

UPS & Inverter

To recommend for Computers, TV’s & decoder, and moveable/pluggable lamps.

But as a Power-Supply by a Power-Failure or Load-Shedding to compare with a Generator expensive and only for small applications.

Even a legal installation with Certificate of Compliance is with this small units most more expensive as the installation of a generator. It can’t operate with a change-over switch. You have to split the different circuits or install new circuits

The price of special batteries and the life-time of this batteries makes it expensive

But the noise pollution is undisturbing.
