Generator System Inspections
All manufacturers recommend a complete inspection of generating power systems before they are put into service, unfortunately most installing companies do not have the experience to perform a comprehensive exam of your entire system.
We can perform the following services during an inspection of your generator system
Load Analysis in order to make sure your system is large enough for the electrical loads which will be provided generator power during a utility outage event.
Electrical System Inspection in order to make sure there are no hazards or additional resistance which could increase operational cost.
Generator Wiring Inspection in order to make sure there are no hazards or additional resistance which could increase operational cost.
Fuel Source Plumbing Inspection in order to make sure correct volume and pressure of gas afforded generator is sufficient.
Generator Site Inspection in order to make sure there are no environmental or ventilation conditions present which could cause problems for the system in respect to correct and efficient operation as well as unit longevity.
Load Testing utilizing external load bank in order to monitor and or calibrate the following:
- Voltage stability and levels at different load stages
- Hertz stability and levels at different load stages
- Transient voltages
- Gas pressure at different load stages
- Rotor amp draw
- Excitation current level when fully loaded
- Temperature levels at 8 different locations of the generator
Operational Testing in order to make sure system functions as it should during a utility outage event.
We leave nothing to chance! Generators should be installed as if they will always encounter worse case scenarios. Systems installed without this philosophy will generally fail when you need them the most. There is a difference between a generator running the weekly exercise period or actually providing the electrical source for your structure loads during an extended utility outage event.
