You are tired of constant problems with electricity and acquired a diesel generator? Great solution. It will provide your house with electricity at the first need. But the trouble is – your generator often breaks and fails. The first thought that arises – instead of a high -quality thing, they slipped me bad. But do not rush with the conclusion. High -quality things are also far from “immortal”. For their long and uninterrupted work, you just need to comply with the correct operation measures.
What must be remembered during the operation of a diesel power plant? Well, firstly, the fact that this is the same device in your house, like everyone else. The only difference is that the generator gives out electricity, and all other electrical appliances consume it. Secondly – the electric generator is not a “unlimited” source of direct current. There is a power limit that he is able to give out. And if it is excessively overwhelmed (operate in conditions when the issued power is below consumed) – it will not last you for a long time. The first sign of the “hard work” of the generator – heating the body.
It is permissible to some extent. But excessive heating can disable it. In addition, there is a big risk in fire plan. In order to prevent this from happening, before acquiring the generator, it is necessary to carefully calculate the total capacity of the electric consumers in your house and buy a generator with some “power reserve”. Let a more powerful generator cost a little more, but you will save on the fact that you will not have to repair it often, or even buy a new.
After you purchased a generator, it is advisable to find a permanent place of his stay. Frequent transportation can also adversely affect his work. The place where you install the generator should have the maximum smooth surface. It should also have a temperature close to room and low humidity. When buying a generator, also purchase the main spare parts for it. After all, possessing some skills in the repair of units, almost any person is able to replace a particular part, failed. This will solve the problem when the electricity is turned off, and the generator suddenly does not work.
At the moment, the production of diesel generators occupies a rather large industry of exports of many countries (Japan, Italy, Romania, Latvia, Germany, Turkey, China). In connection with the excess of offers in the generator installation market, manufacturers are forced to create high-quality generator installations (from portable mini-generators to high-power diesel power plants). Therefore, the quality of the generator should not be particularly worried. The main rule here is “not to treat the disease, but to warn it” by compliance with the established operating rules.
