In case of lack of the electric power, household generators can ensure functioning of many electric devices. They can be used in country houses, at the dacha and even on small production. What it is necessary to pay attention when choosing such engineering device to?

Instruction
1. When choosing the household generator pay attention to the volume of fuel tank as the unit operating time will depend on this parameter. Therefore at first decide in what mode you will operate it: reserve or autonomous. You will be able to secure yourself against lack of energy in the presence of the power supply network, having bought the reserve generator. If you have no constant electric power supply, look narrowly at devices which can independently work long time.
2. Calculate the electric generator power which will be necessary for you. For this purpose calculate the total power of all switched-on devices, considering coefficient of starting currents, and increase the received number approximately by 20 percent. For example, for small giving where bulbs, the fridge and the TV join, there is enough generator capacity in 2 kilowatts. Another matter - big country cottage. Here, by approximate calculations, the device with power about 30 kilowatts will be required.
3. Keep in mind that generator units happen two types: diesel and petrol. Besides, all installations still can be separated into synchronous and asynchronous. Therefore before giving the preference to any given device, study all its pluses and minuses.
4. Choose the mode of start of the generator suitable for you: by means of the electric starter, manual or automatic when the device independently turns on in the absence of line voltage, and at its emergence – it is disconnected.
5. When choosing the electric generator try to consider also such factors as: fire safety, reliability and low noise level during operating time. Availability of additional functions, for example, protection against leakage of current, possibility of the conversion to liquefied gas, etc. will not prevent.
