Residential areas generally do not require frequent use of generator sets on a daily basis. However, there are specific situations where having a generator set is necessary for a residential area, such as the situations described below.
Frequent power outage areas: Some people live in areas with frequent power outages due to weather conditions or unreliable power grids, and having a generator set can provide timely backup power to keep basic appliances and systems running.
Remote or off-grid areas: Residential areas located in remote or off-grid areas have limited access to the power grid, so generator sets are often chosen to meet local power needs.
Medical or special needs: If residents in some areas rely on medical equipment or have special needs and need to be assured of a continuous supply of electricity, then having a generator set is vital to ensure their health and lives.
When acquiring a generator set for a residential area, there are usually several things to keep in mind:
· Capacity: The capacity of the generator set should be sufficient to meet the demand for electricity in residential areas. The number of households, the size of the area, the demand for electricity and other factors needs to be taken into consideration.
· Fuel type: Diesel, gasoline, natural gas, or propane can be used as fuel for the generator set. When selecting a generator set, consideration should be given to the type of fuel chosen, whether it is economical enough, easily accessible, and consistent with local rules and developments.
· Automatic transfer switch: When deciding on the configuration of a generator set, an automatic transfer switch (ATS) needs to be considered. A generator set equipped with an ATS can automatically switch power from the grid to the generator set in the event of a power outage to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the residential area.
· Noise level: Generally speaking, generator sets used in residential areas have a nice sound insulation level and noise reduction. Excessive noise can affect people's daily life, even physical and mental health, so low noise level of the generator set is very necessary.
· Maintenance requirements: The maintenance requirements of the generator set need to be considered, such as routine maintenance, regular repairs, fuel filling and service life, as well as the deployment of technicians to ensure the long-term reliable operation of the generator set.
We recommend consulting with a qualified and reliable power expert or solution provider who can assess the specific needs of the residential area and offer the right generator set and solution.
