In this article, we will discuss the importance of Load Bank Testing for an generator and provide a step-by-step guide on how to perform this test. We will also cover the preparation required before starting the test, the procedure for Load Bank Testing, and how to analyze the results obtained in the test. By the end of this article, you will have a better understanding of Load Bank Testing and its importance in ensuring optimal performance of your generator.

Diesel generators are essential for many industries, shops, services and businesses. However, many users must learn how to optimize fuel use in their diesel generators. Using the correct fuel and keeping the device running at the proper settings can significantly affect your generator’s power-producing operation costs.

In this article, we will detail the aspects on which fuel savings depend on the operation of your diesel generator.

In other articles on our blog, we have analyzed how useful diesel power generators are in supplying electricity in industrial, commercial, health, emergency care, military operations, and home applications. However, users make many very common mistakes (more than we would like) when using a diesel power generator. These errors can result in decreased generator efficiency, increased usage costs, increased risk of personal injury and property damage, and decreased generator life.

In this article, we will look at what you should not do with your diesel power generator.

When we make the decision to purchase an electric generator, it is important to approach to understand how does a generator work, as well as to know and identify which of these products fits our needs.

Here is a brief explanation about it.

As you can read in your generator manual, you should perform regular maintenance checks to ensure that your backup power source is always reliably available.
One of the most important aspects of regular generator maintenance is inspecting the oil.

It often happens, as with any engine, that after a period of use, the generator oil can become dirty, muddy and lose its properties, which can prevent your generator from operating in optimal conditions and even cause long-term damage.

Using the wrong oil can be very harmful, not only to your generator, but also to those operating around the machine.
