Residential Generators contain Portable and Standby Generators. Portable generator takes major share in Residential application field.
Residential Portable Generators are the most common kind of backup power solution. Versatile and easily moved, a portable generator can be used in multiple locations for several purposes. In an emergency, Residential Portable Generator can provide critical backup power. Just add fuel, start the engine, and run extension cords to your most essential items. During a power outage, Residential Portable Generator make sure the most important items—lights, refrigerators and freezers, sump pumps, even space heaters and window air conditioners—are up and running, minimizing any disruption to ones' lifestyle.
Generally, a residential home standby generator set offers many features not found on portable generator sets, such as a more sophisticated control system, a fully weather–protective enclosure, significantly quieter operation, and more capacity so you can power more conveniences. It goes on automatically when you need it and shuts down automatically once main power is restored. It is connected directly to a fuel system and your home’s electrical system so you won’t have to fill a gas tank or manually transfer power from the utility to the home standby unit.
