Power Cut?


Don't Suffer the cold and dark of power cuts...

Domestic Stand by Generators

The DSI TopGen range of GAS and Diesel powered stand by and prime power generators are designed specifically for the Home where security of electrical supply to maintain quality of life is as much as a worry as cost. Particularly if you have a remote dwelling at the end of an overhead power line subjected to frequent power cuts. Many of our customers are elderly requiring the feel good factor of continuous uninterrupted power supply for heating, lighting and security systems.

For the vast majority of domestic dwellings electrical supply companies are bound by legislation to provide power up to 25kW (100 amps). However most homes use a maximum of 15kW and normally will be running at around 5 to 8kW. (20 to 30 amps).

OK - OK so how much power will I need to keep my home going when there is a power cut?

By clicking on the above line you will be taken to a table listing power requirements of typical domestic and small office appliances and equipment. Just list your needs and tot up the power.

But don't do it yet!!!!!

So to get you started just ask yourself the following question and click on the line that best suits you to see photograph, specification and budget pricing. Don't forget domestic dwellings (houses and barn conversation) in the UK are supplied with 220 volts single phase 50 Hz.

"When the mains utility power fails - I will not use my electric cooker the dishwasher& washing machines all at the same time - so 6 to 10kW is all I need".

"When I am using my generator for home power, will I need to use all electrical appliances without having to think.   Just as I do when I have unlimited power from the mains?"

"My home / office is a large building and I think I need 15kW" home stand by generator.

"My home is very large with many out buildings the full 25kW (100 amps) is needed to maintain my life style during a power cut."

"My Home Office - Small Office has air-conditioning - swimming and established out buildings needing over (30 kW) with many items needing power during power cuts."

The generator will be my only source of electricity.

We have looked at how quiet the generators are now what about fuel? ............... for silence rating

Diesel - GAS or Petrol ?

Petrol engines - These have far too many Health and Safety issues to make them viable for home use for anything other than powering portable tools.

Diesel engines - At first look these are the best bet, however if you are looking for 15 kW or below then they are far too expensive.

GAS engines - Now we are talking real value for money for Home and Small office standby generators.

GAS Benefits ...............

Don't forget, DSI provide a site survey free of charge to establish just what you need and give advice on where to best place your set.

TopGen generators are protected by a full 18 months warranty and 36 month regular maintenance cover to achieve the maximum life at minimum cost from your TopGen generator.
