What size generator do I need?

The size of the generator required can be quite easily worked out, providing you know the maximum current draw required in Amps or Kilowatts of the electrical products you are wishing to operate. The best option is to talk to all of your suppliers to gain as much information as possible and then when you call us, we will do our absolute best to meet all of these requirements.
