Problems with power outages quite often occur not only in suburban settlements or rural areas. This phenomenon is considered quite common in both newly built neighborhoods and newly commissioned houses. Typically, this is associated with:
- With ongoing repair or installation work.
- With the disconnection of the temporary cable and the laying of a fixed line.
- With all sorts of emergencies or unauthorized connections.
Such an affordable device as generator will help to become independent, to provide oneself with electric energy even if it is disconnected through the central network diesel for home and individual households. It can be easily installed even on a loggia or balcony of a city apartment and used as a backup energy source.
How to choose the right generator
To select a diesel generator, it is necessary to clarify which power (measured in W or kW) is needed in the event of an emergency power outage for servicing a private house or apartment. It's easy enough to do this:
- The total number of simultaneously used lighting fixtures is calculated (the parameters are indicated on the bulb itself).
- The power consumption of the electrical appliances involved (for example, TV, refrigerator, do not forget about the air conditioner used in summer).
It is necessary to add 15-20% to the total result obtained and round it to the technical parameters available for the sale of diesel generators. There are 3 main types by the amount of energy generated:
- Portable or mobile - from 2 to 5 kW, lightweight, do not have a protective body and transport wheels. They fit in the trunk of a car without any problems and can become indispensable helpers for hunting or fishing with an overnight stay.
- Semi-stationary - up to 100 kW, equipped with wheels for manual movement, protective casing and additional functionality (for example, a large fuel tank).
- Mobile power plants - the generated power can be up to 2,000 kW, have a hitch and are mounted on a vehicle chassis for transportation as a trailer.
Depending on the type of diesel generator chosen by the user, it should be borne in mind that they are additionally divided by the number of sockets and the magnitude of the output voltage (220 or 380 V).
And finally, as a nice bonus, almost all diesel generators of the well-known manufacturer ENERSOL are equipped with auto-start and equipment protection from overheating. Delivery
