Is 150 kVA the right size?

Add up the running load of everything the generator must power, allow for motor start-up surges, then leave around 20–25% headroom. If your total sits near 90 kW, a 150 kVA set is usually a good fit. Not sure? Send us your load list or electricity bill and we'll size it for free.

Standby or prime rating?

Standby is for backup during mains failures; prime is for continuous running where there's no grid. Check the prime figure if the 150 kVA generator will be your main power source.

Silent or open?

Silent (acoustic canopy) sets suit outdoor sites near people; open sets suit plant rooms. Ask for an automatic transfer switch if you want the generator to start on its own when the mains drops.
