Installation of a generator for a house.

Tomgunn
Hello all,


I'm moving house, (been here for over 42 years'!!), and one of the first items on my mind is installing an electrical generator.


SO; I guess there will be contactors / switch gear etc as I would like it to be 'automatic', (OR, maybe 'manual' too), changing from incoming to the generator.


a; What would be the best type of generator to purchase? Load wise? I'm not too worried as the bigger the load the bigger the           generator would need to be as long as I could run the basics within the house.


b; What switch gear would be appropriate?


I would't fancy the idea of switching tails around on a Henley block each time I needed the generator to be in use!!


Thanks, in advance!


regards... Tom

    If you have any info, about Hastings, then let me know... if you get the time!


    regards... Tom



    Hastings ? - I think there was a bit of unpleasantness with a few French chaps a while back  - had someones eye out, I believe


    Ohhh - and I think there's an insurance company in town (which is handy if the next lot of French chaps arrive suddenly, and do a bit of damage)


    Didn't that little Belgian fella have a mate from Hastings as well


    Anyway, Crack on, Tom - we know where to come for a brew when the country collapses, it could be a good place to get a once used inflatable to head across the channel for supplies

    French bloke? Nah... AH! Charles de Gaulle???  I know he ran away, when he was scared BUT... I don't know anything about losing an eye??? THEN, he pooed on the UK after some war, or sumfing??


    You little tinker, OMS... you couldn't resist it, hahaha!! ?


    Everyone is welcome, for a brew!!


    THANKS... I will do my best to 'crack on!!' ?


    Regards...
