I'm sure 5 kW was easily handled with 18 bhp! The figures for mine are 1400 cc (single) 6 hp and about 3.5 kW (though I have a 5kW gen head). |

My generator is: http://www.pramac.com/pages/Product_detail_fr/513?ixRecordTableName=vw_p_product_sheet&root_node=2&lang=en_GB&id_market=176&id_product=1026&ixRecordId=1026 Yanmar L70N engine and it is nominally 6,7 hp at 3600 rpm, but continuous power at 3000 rpm is 4,1 kW making it fair close match to nominally 3,9 kVA generator and continuous power of 3kW of electics.

Our Generator is a Kipor 6700TA http://www.kiporuk.co.uk/diesel-generator/kde-6700ta-400-64-67.php Clone Yanmar diesel engine in it. The thing can run our IT systems if we loose power, we also have a small battery bank that is solar charged and can be kept topped up with the generator in the winter if we don't get sun. Yep even in the UK on a sunny winters day we get enough juice to fully charge our battery bank. 4.8kw of which 2.4kw is our allowed drain doesn't sound much, but it gives us time to start the generator should we have a power cut without the computers all going down, also covers the house lights and network/telephone gear. |
