Generator Hire
100kVA Generator Hire
Where our workhorse fleet starts. Construction sites, hotels, supermarkets and plant rooms, in standard or super-silent build, with parallel operation available from this size up.
The workhorse starts here
100kVA is the first size in the band that does most of our work. It is also the point where two important options open up: a super-silent build, and running sets in parallel.
A 100kVA carries a substantial site: a construction program with cranes and hoists, a supermarket's refrigeration and checkouts, a hotel's essential services, or a plant room through a planned shutdown. It runs for weeks and months rather than days, which changes what matters: fuel management, monitoring and a service program, not just the machine.
Two things change at this size. We hold super-silent 100kVA sets for noise-sensitive work in hospitals, events and the CBD. And units at 100kVA and above can be synchronised to run in series, which gives you redundancy, load bearing, and the ability to take one machine offline without dropping the site.
- Super-silent available A quiet build held at this size for hospitals, events and inner-city work.
- Parallel-ready Synchronise sets for redundancy and to take one offline without dropping the site.
- Managed, not just delivered Scheduled refuelling, monitoring and servicing across a long hire.

Where a 100kVA earns its keep
Construction programs with cranes and hoists, supermarkets and retail centres, hotels, plant rooms on planned shutdown, and network outages where the supply is off for weeks.
It never goes out alone
A set on its own is rarely the whole job. The gear that gets it connected and keeps it running is held in our Kilsyth yard.
- Refuelling trucks
- Delivery tilt trays
- Crane trucks
- Industrial fuel cells
- Temporary switchboards
- Cable ramps and covers
- Lighting towers
- Load banks
From your call to power on
No triage queue and no handballing. The person who picks up is the person organising your set.

-
We size it on the call
Our electricians and generator specialists work out what will carry the load now, and what the connection needs to look like.
-
Dispatch and connect
The set goes out on our own float fleet, and our A-grade electricians make the connection and commission it on site.
-
We stay accountable
Fuel management, monitoring and on-call technicians until your operation is back on, stable, and no longer needs us.

Frequently asked
What will a 100kVA generator run?
A substantial construction site with cranes, hoists and site accommodation; a supermarket's refrigeration, checkouts and lighting; a hotel's essential services; or a plant room through a planned shutdown. At this size the hire is usually weeks or months, so fuel management and servicing matter as much as the machine itself.
Is there a super-silent 100kVA?
Yes. 100kVA is one of the sizes we hold in a super-silent build, which is what makes it usable for hospitals, events and inner-city work where a standard set would not be acceptable. Tell us the noise constraint early and we will allocate the quiet machine rather than discover the problem on site.
Can two 100kVA sets be run together?
Yes. Units at 100kVA and above can be synchronised to run in series. That gives you redundancy, load bearing across the pair, and the ability to take one machine offline for service without dropping the site. It is often a better answer than a single larger set on a critical job.
How is fuel handled on a long hire?
We run our own refuelling trucks and put long hires on a scheduled program, so the set never runs dry. Where the site or the duty warrants it we can add bulk on-site storage, from field tanks up to 60,000L systems.
How much does it cost to hire a 100kVA generator?
The term drives most of it, then the site: access, cable runs, a temporary switchboard, fuel and delivery. Multi-month hires price very differently to a two-week job, so tell us the real program and we will quote the whole thing rather than a day rate.
What happens if it fails on site?
We are on call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, with our own technicians and our own transport. Metro response averages under 90 minutes. On a critical site we would usually discuss running two sets in parallel so a single failure never takes the load down at all.
