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

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

    I got told off once by a resident of those parts for spreading false rumours - apparently the locals claim the battle wasn't as Hastings at all, but a few miles inland at a place called, believe it or not, Battle. (I presume it wasn't called that at the time though - that would have been too much of a co-incidence)

    Hello Andy...


    I have watched a few documentaries that said the same!! I just hope I don't have too much of trouble with my 'battle' of getting there!
