Frequently asked questions

Common questions before ordering a set.

What is the difference between prime and standby power?

Standby is the maximum rating for emergency use during a mains outage. Prime is the rating for continuous running where the set is the main power source. Model names show both, e.g. TG30 – TG32S is 30 kVA prime / 32 kVA standby.

Which engine should I choose?

Kubota suits smaller and single-phase loads; John Deere covers the broad mid-range; Cummins powers the largest industrial and continuous-duty sets. Tell us your load and we will recommend the right one.

Do you deliver across the UK?

Yes — free delivery across the UK, with same-day shipping on stocked items.

Do you provide installation and commissioning?
