The efficiency of a portable generator is unmatched by even the largest generator on the market. When properly installed and serviced, a portable generator can provide clean and constant electrical power for an entire home or office. However, when you want to know how much power your generator is capable of, there are several factors to consider.
To get started, you need to know about generator wattage. This refers to the actual number of watts that a generator is able to produce during its peak performance. Portable generators for home use tend to fall into one of two categories: standby and direct current (DC). While both provide power to your home, the primary function of DC generators is for temporary power solutions during blackouts or power outages.
A standby natural gas or propane fuel powered generator will run continuously until it runs out of fuel, at which point it must be refueled. Most standby natural gas or propane portable generators are designed for temporary use. You can mount them on your vehicle, storage building, or even in your garage. They usually run on natural gas or propane. Your fuel source will determine the size of the engine and overall efficiency.
Direct current portable generators for home use are capable of producing electricity that is more stable than natural gas or propane. While they may run continuously, they must be refueled periodically. Direct current generators may also include a back-up battery, but this is not common for stand alone units.
Most portable generators for home use are DC powered, which means that their motor will convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. DC engines generate their power through electrical generators, but they also incorporate an “inverter” that converts mechanical energy into alternating energy. The inverter will convert the alternating current (A) into direct current (D). This conversion process allows you to have longer electrical cords that can easily connect to the standby generators. There is no need to worry about an overage of power since the engine is always running, resulting in clean power and continuous operation.
Most portable generators for home use are portable and can be moved from one place to another when needed. In most cases, permanent standby generators will be large structures that will remain in place permanently. These types of generators will be made of solid steel or aluminum. If an emergency arises, they will be able to withstand winds of up to eighty miles per hour as well as heavy snow, strong storms, and earthquakes. These types of generators can also operate in remote areas where cell phone reception is not available.
There are some disadvantages associated with portable generators for home use. When there is a power outage, it may be necessary to wait until the power comes back on. If you are in a location where there is no electric company, then it is possible that you could be without electricity for weeks. This problem can be compounded by damage that may occur to your appliances if they are left in the middle of the outage. It is wise to do routine maintenance on your generator’s at least once a year.
Whether you are using portable generators for industrial, commercial, or residential purposes, it is important to take into account the type of operation you will require before purchasing the equipment. A new generator requires different maintenance than an older model. This information should help you determine whether or not you need to consult a professional before you purchase your new generator.
