Generators in Gauteng

We supply and install standby generators with proper changeover panels for homes, complexes, shops and businesses in Gauteng — including manual and automatic transfer switches, plinths, cabling, earthing, exhaust routing and load testing so the generator carries the circuits you nominate.

What this service includes

  • Petrol and diesel standby generator installation
  • Manual and automatic changeover (ATS) panels

  • Correct earthing, neutral bonding and cable sizing
  • Plinths, weather housings and exhaust routing
  • Generator servicing and fault finding

How we do it

  1. 1Load calculationWe calculate the running and starting load so the generator is neither undersized nor wasteful.
  2. 2Position and plinthPlacement is chosen for ventilation, noise and safe fuel handling, then the plinth is prepared.
  3. 3Changeover installationA manual or automatic changeover panel is installed so the generator can never back-feed the grid.
  4. 4Load test and trainingWe load test, then show you start-up, changeover and maintenance.

What affects the price

  • Generator kVA rating and fuel type
  • Manual versus automatic changeover
  • Cable run distance and civil work for the plinth
  • Whether an essential-loads board is required

FAQs

Generators: common questions

Can I just plug a generator into a wall socket?

No. Back-feeding through a plug is illegal and dangerous — it can electrocute municipal workers. A changeover switch is required.

Generator or solar with batteries?

A generator is cheaper up front and runs indefinitely with fuel; solar and batteries are silent, need no fuel and cut your bill. Many Gauteng clients pair a small generator with a hybrid solar system.
