Back-up Generators

Back-up generators are becoming increasingly popular due to the regular power outages being experienced in both Sydney and Melbourne. Our generators are natural gas fueled, which means they can operate without the need to refuel petrol or diesel tanks. The unit can also be programmed to run on LP gas.

Commercial Backup Generators

Living Power can also provide and install commercial grade backup generators. Kohler generators are used on larger installations, such as office and warehouse facilities,and are designed to automatically operate in the event of a power failure (see below for an example of a recent installation). The image on the left shows a Kohler KD200 being installed on a project in Ashfield.

The client required a 3 storey office block and warehouse to be supplied with backup electricity in the event of a power failure. This KD 200 is able to supply 278 amps per phase as a standby backup supply. It is switched through an Automatic Transfer Switch, which is located adjacent to the Main Switchboard.
