Benefits of Having a Generator

While many people see Market Deeping generator installations as nothing more than a backup power supply, a good installation project can have a range of useful benefits.

Many of these apply to domestic and commercial properties, meaning they are not exclusive to just one situation. We have listed some of the benefits below.

Emergency Power Supply

Generator installation in Market Deeping allows a business to continue operating without regular power. A good backup generator can power an entire home or commercial building in the short term as long as fuel is available.

This means that properties can continue to operate even if blackouts occur - this does not just mean regular commercial operation but also emergency electricity for things like maintenance tools or safety measures.

Employees Won't Lose Shifts

The installation of a generator system in Market Deeping East Midlands can keep a business' power needs steady when the power is out, ensuring that employees do not lose shifts due to blackouts.

Most generator installations are easy to run, meaning that any employee can fill them up and get them running in the event of a power failure.

Keep Inventory from Spoiling

Generator installation for a refrigerator system allows the units to kick in when power fails, ensuring that on-site inventory does not spoil.

Standby generators can even do this automatically if installed properly, activating when the building loses power.

Mitigates Health Risks

Generators ensure that equipment - including safety equipment - receives power if the building loses power.

This ensures that support tools, safety elements and protective equipment function normally while ensuring that on-site risks are not heightened due to power turning them off.

Proper positioning to vent the emissions from the generator installation also means that a standby generator can be relied on in the short term without causing potential hazards at the site.

Reduces Expenses

While a generator installation may cost more to run overall due to the need for fuel tanks (and the generator itself), a well-installed generator can reduce expenses in many cases.

This includes inventory lost due to system blackouts, broken appliances due to unexpected shutdowns, etc.

This also allows workplaces to deal with unexpected events that might lead to extra expenses, such as connected appliances stopping midway through an expensive process.

Protects Appliances

Many appliances can simply break if power is cut unexpectedly, especially if they turn off midway through a delicate process.

A standby generator can offer power protection to support other equipment, letting those processes be carried out as normal.

Types of Generators

A site may use many types of generator installation in Market Deeping PE6 8, all of which have their own specific quirks and advantages.

Some are even mixes of multiple types, serving as hybrid generator options. These include:

  • Standby Generator - a higher-power generator that can power an entire site, turning on automatically when the power goes out.

  • Natural Gas - generator units powered by natural gas. It is cheap to buy and costly to run.

  • Gasoline - generator units powered by gasoline. Similar to natural gas generator units.

  • Portable Industrial Generators - lightweight or otherwise portable generator units often used for industrial purposes.

  • Diesel - generator units powered by diesel. More expensive to buy but cheaper to run.

  • Biodiesel - generator units powered by biodiesel. Produce lower emissions, but may not be as reliable.

  • Emulsified Diesel - powered using emulsified diesel

  • Inverter - a generator installation that uses a special process to produce clean energy, reducing fuel usage and working well for smaller-scale purposes.

  • Hydrogen - generator units that convert water into hydrogen gas that is burned for power. Far more eco-friendly and efficient than other types, but expensive.

  • Silent - silent-running generator units.

  • Solar - solar power systems to produce power from sunlight.

  • Petroleum - generator units powered by petrol.

  • Marine - waterproof generator units meant to be used in oceans and rivers.

  • Heavy Fuel Oil - specialist generator units that use heavier forms of crude oil.

  • Propane - generator units powered by propane.

  • Induction - generators that use electromagnetic fields to power a rotor, often used in hydropower plants or wind turbine farms.

  • Industrial Generators - larger generator units that are meant for industrial use, rather than residential use.

  • Canopied - fully enclosed units that are protected from the elements.

  • Open - exposed generator units that are often mounted onto a structure directly.

Power Requirements

We can provide a complete range of generators in Market Deeping , including those that provide both phase one and phase three power (120 volts or 480 volts).

Phase three generator units are often used in industrial contexts.

We provide generator delivery and installation for multiple levels of requirements, including 120-208 volt service and 277-480 volt service.

This includes mechanical installation of generator units from companies like Generac, Katolight, Kohler, MTU, Cummins and Caterpillar.

FAQs

Who Should Install a Generator?

Installation of a generator requires experienced generator engineers to handle both the electrical work and the mechanical installation.

Electrical installation is especially dangerous, and poor electrical installation of a generator can sometimes have lethal consequences.

A professional installation and maintenance team like our installers in Market Deeping is necessary, even for something basic like a transfer switch.

Only a person with a complete range of relevant skills should install a generator, whether a diesel generator or a much more complex piece of equipment.

Do I Need Planning Permission to Install a Generator?

You do not generally need planning permission for generator installation.

However, a larger initial design (like a bigger industrial generator) or installing a diesel generator in a protected area may require permission.

If the method statements for installation involve an initial design that requires major changes, planning permission may be needed.

For example, building a new structure for the generator installation and transfer switch may qualify.

Do You Need a License to Run Backup Generator Installations?

Non-backup generators require a permit to run.

Certain power generation options, like a diesel generator or those with a high noise level, may need extra licenses and approval.

Can I Plug a Generator or External Fuel Tank Into My House UK?

You can't usually plug a generator into your home power system like a manual appliance.

This should usually be done by a licensed electrician, both for reliability reasons and to ensure safety.

Our generator installers in Market Deeping can get your generator hooked up to your house properly upon completion of the installation.

Can I Install a Generator Indoors?

A generator that produces emissions should be kept in an outdoor space without a roof.

Equipment like a transfer switch and fuel tank can be placed indoors, but even a basic petrol or diesel generator becomes lethal in enclosed spaces.

The position of the generator matters, and placing one inside your house can be extremely dangerous.

Safety Standards / Environmental Requirements

  • Generators must always have the ability to let a human switch them off in an emergency rather than running entirely automatically.

  • Generators must be hooked up to the grid by professionals for completion of the installation.

  • Generators must not be placed inside or send emissions to indoor spaces.

  • Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) must function to UPS standards.
