Frequently Asked Questions

What can a 30kVA generator power do?
A 30kVA generator can deliver around 24kW of usable power, which is enough to run multiple small-to-medium appliances or machines simultaneously. However, actual load capacity depends on the power factor and whether you use single-phase or three-phase equipment.
Do you provide delivery and setup services?
Yes. We offer delivery, installation, and pickup as part of the hire service. We position each generator safely, test it on-site, and correctly connect it based on your needs. This service is available across NSW, ACT, Brisbane, and surrounding areas.
How loud is a 30kVA generator?
Most 30kVA generators are fitted with acoustic enclosures. On average, they produce noise similar to the noise level of a vacuum cleaner or background conversation.
Can a 30kVA generator run 24/7?
Yes, a 30kVA generator can operate continuously, provided it’s maintained, refuelled, and serviced correctly. These generators are designed for both standby and prime use. For long runtimes, especially 24/7 usage, we recommend pairing the generator with a bunded fuel tank and scheduling regular maintenance for consistent performance.
How do I know if a 30kVA generator rental is the right size for my needs?
Calculate the total power draw (in kW or kVA) of all the equipment you’ll be running. Consider starting loads for motors or compressors, which can spike above running loads.
Do you provide on-site maintenance during the hire period?
Yes! All our hires include routine servicing and maintenance. For long-term or continuous-use hires, we schedule maintenance at intervals based on hours run or calendar time.
What type of fuel does a 30kVA generator use?
30kVA generators run on diesel fuel. They are reliable, economical for extended use, and widely preferred in industrial and remote applications.
Do you offer fuel-efficient generator options?

Yes. All Rental Power units, including the 30kVA generator rentals, are selected for their fuel efficiency and low operating costs. We supply modern, fuel-efficient generators that comply with current emissions and performance standards. Contact us for more details.
