Which is the right type of generator for me?

We supply a range of different generators for different applications. If you are struggling to decide what type you you need please visit or main Generators page and click on the different types to get an overview. 

Which is the right size generator for me?

Before deciding which generator you need, it is important to consider ALL the appliances you will be operating, how many will be used simultaneously and the TOTAL current consumption at any one time. Most appliances have a description plate stating the current, usually in watts.

TV sets, cookers, HI-FI, kettles and filament lamps have resistive loads, their starting and running current being virtually the same, and as stated on the description plate.

Hand tools with universal type motors need an extra 5% added to their stated power consumption.

Fluorescent lamps (on average) require approximately 1.5 times their stated wattage to start-up.

Altrad Belle Mini/Maxi concrete mixers, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, freezers and central heating pumps usually employ induction/capacitor type motors. Their starting current can be 3 times the normal running requirement: check the description plate carefully. Note for example an Altrad Belle Minimix 150 mixer, having a motor wattage of 650 watts input multiplied by 3 would give a starting requirement of 1950 watts, therefore a 2.2kW generator would be required.

If in doubt check with the manufacturer. Microwave ovens are often referred to by their cooking power, which on average is half their actual operating power consumption. However, switching on the oven consumes an extra 25% power as the capacitor is energised. Thus, a normal 600 watt microwave actually needs 1500 watts to operate it.
