All about Diesel Generator Offices, home, factories and etc need uninterrupted supply of electricity all the time to perform and complete day to day task. Diesel generator plays an important role; it is the combination of electric generator and a diesel engine. These are used for the continuous supply of electricity; they provide power for the electric power grids. An electrical generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. They are used in the times of adverse or no current supply and also they are used as the base supply of electricity too. They provide electricity by their own mechanism.
The most advantageous feature of this type of generator is they can run on various types of fuel from natural gas, alcohols, wood gas, gasoline, to fuel oils from diesel oil to residual fuels, thus they run with the full spectrum of crude oil distillates. Thus, according to the different configuration they work on different fuels mentioned above. Most common fuels they work on are the diesel fuel derived from the crude oil. The most important part of selecting the generator is selecting its appropriate and needed size, the needed size is calculated according the needed amount of electric load that they would have to supply. They are used as emergency powers, or as the prime electric source or for continuous power supply. While choosing one should also take the environmental conditions, temperature, altitude, and emissions into account. Most of the manufacturers make the choosing process simple by performing the needed size calculation through software by giving the input of connected electrical load characteristics and site conditions. Diesel generator sets are packaged that contains the combination of a generator, diesel engine and various ancillary devices like canopy, sound attenuation, circuit breakers, base, control systems, starting systems and jacket water heaters. All these sets are referred as generator set or genset in short.

The generator sets are available to support all types of environments, Gensets are available for homes to large offices, their size vary from 8 to 30 KW for offices, small shops and homes, whereas factories, office complexes will have larger needs, thus the generator sets that is used here range from 8 KW to 2000 KW. These need to be installed perfectly; these services are provided by many service providers, while installing various features needs to be kept in mind like the low maintenance cost, correct functioning and reliability. Needs like, sizing and selection, cooling, noise, ventilation, exhaust, starting systems, fuel storage, electrical factors are kept in mind during the set up. However the engine needs to be used carefully for the defined purpose as not knowing the usage or improper usage may lead to the damage of the engine; however this can be avoided by selecting the right product with manufacturer’s guidelines.
