Generators for hire: use cases & industries
Generators are a mainstay of the construction industry, where they are used to provide electricity to power tools and devices in locations where there is limited or no electrical supply.
A portable generator can also be used in agriculture to provide power to equipment in remote fields.
Generators are often used in the event of a blackout or other emergency to keep electricity flowing to vital infrastructure. In these scenarios, the machines can provide power to keep medicinal, communication or manufacturing equipment operational and ensure services are disrupted as little as possible.
Generator hire safety & compliance steps
There are several safety precautions that should be taken when using petrol and diesel generators as an electrical supply.
Ensure the generator is always run in a well-ventilated area, to avoid the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning. If your generator has exposed components, it is a good idea to not use the machine in wet conditions to prevent damage or electrocution.
Before using our generator hire services, ensure you are aware of the machine’s maximum load. Overloading the generator can cause it to overheat and short out either the machine itself or the devices you have connected to it. Following these safety tips will ensure that your generator continues to operate reliably and safely throughout your rental.
