Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main applications for a 40kVA generator?

A 40kVA generator is used to power site offices, lighting rigs, water pumps, power tools, temporary event infrastructure, and remote buildings. It’s especially popular on construction sites, in agricultural operations, and as a backup power source for residential or commercial use.

How long can I hire a 40kVA generator?

We offer flexible hire periods. Both short-term and long-term rental options are available, with prices adjusted accordingly. If you need to extend your hire beyond the original period, just let us know, so we can assist you.

What fuel does a 40kVA generator hire use?

Our 40kVA generators run on diesel fuel. They are efficient, reliable, and capable of handling continuous loads. They are ideal for both standby and prime power applications.

How much fuel does a 40kVA generator consume?

On average, a 40kVA generator consumes between 8-10 litres of diesel per hour at 75% load. However, actual fuel consumption depends on the load demand and the generator model.

Is delivery and setup included in the hire service?

Yes, we provide end-to-end service. Delivery, on-site installation, and pickup are all included as part of the hire package.

What maintenance is required for a hired 40kVA generator?

Our team will handle all scheduled servicing, inspections, and breakdown support during the hire period.

How much noise does a 40kVA generator produce?

Most of our 40kVA generators are fitted with sound-attenuated canopies and produce approximately 60-70 dBA at 7 metres. This makes them suitable for use in populated or noise-sensitive environments such as events, schools, and residential areas.

What happens if the generator breaks down during the hire period?

If there’s a fault or breakdown, simply contact our support team. We provide 24/7 breakdown response, and our technicians will be dispatched promptly to repair or replace the unit.
