Frequently asked questions
Answers are plain text on the page for search engines and buyers alike.
What will a 80 kVA generator actually run?
At about 64 kW of prime power, this unit covers mixed commercial loads — lighting, HVAC packages, refrigeration, lifts and IT — provided the largest motor starts are within the set’s surge capacity. We size final selections against your measured or estimated load profile.

This set is rated at approximately 72 dB(A) at 7 m under standard test conditions. Site layout, barriers and load profile affect the figure you hear on the ground.
