When purchasing diesel generator sets, customers are often confused as to which diesel generator sets is important. Here are some suggestions for you:

1.Choose the right power:

(1) Ordinary electrical appliances: such as computers, TV, lights add up according to the rated power is equal to the total power consumption.

(2) Heating appliances: Microwave ovens, water heaters etc. The power of these appliances is calculated as 1.5-2 times the total power consumption.

2. Avoid three misunderstandings:

(1) Confusing the relationship between KVA and KW. Threat KVA as KW exaggerated power and sell it to customers. In fact KVA is the apparent power. And KW is the effictive power. The relationship between them is 1KVA=0.8KW.

(2) Confuse the relationship between rated power and maximum power, just say “power” and sell the maximum power as rated power to customers. In fact, the max power -1.1x rater power. Moreover, the max power can only be used for 1 hour of continuous operation.

(3) The power of diesel engine is the same as the power of the generator. In order to reduce the cost. In fact, the industry generally stipulates that diesel engine power 2-10% of generator power because of the mechanical loss. Worse still, some people misreport the horsepower of the diesel engine as kilowatts to the user. And use a diesel engine less than the generator power to configure the unit, commonly known as :small horse drawn cart, so that the unit life is reduced, maintenance is frequent and the use cost is also high.
