South Africa is still battling with power outages around the country. Cape Town has been hit the hardest after the blackouts in February 2006. This resulted in a loss of millions due to business and the tourism industry not being prepared for such a power shortage.
As a result, industrial generators have been in high demand.
The following factors should be taken into consideration when deciding which
industrial generator is suitable:
- Consult the experts when an industrial generator has to be purchased. A detailed survey of the electrical draw off is required for 15KVA and higher generators. This could only be determined by an on-site visit to determine the company´s power requirements.
- Discuss your requirements with the experts in order to ensure that the generator meets your power requirements. The last thing anybody wants is loss of income due to failure to meet demands from a newly purchased generator.
Industrial generator installation:
- Automatic Start up
- Connections directly to your DB Board
- Use of sensitive equipment.
- Certificate of compliance and safety
After sales service, spare parts and maintenance:
Speak to the industrial generator supplier and obtain as much possible information regarding their maintenance offerings for bigger units, spare parts and service workshops. Purchasing an industrial generator is considered to be an investment where one expects long-term service and support in order to make the most of the product you purchased.
The most important tip we could give is for clients to purchase a complete power solution and not just a generator. A complete solution will ensure long service from your industrial generator which normally comes at a higher price than a household generator. It is worth the investment if you want your business to succeed in a time where everybody else is suffering because of these power shortages.
