Industrial Generator Hire & Standby Power

Manufacturing plants, recycling and processing. Continuous load profiles, scheduled outages and emergency backup, sized and managed by a power-only specialist.

Industrial hire

The line does not get to cool down

Continuous load, heavy motor starts and a shutdown window that cannot slip. Industrial power is judged on what happens in the seconds after the mains drop.

Built for continuous load

An industrial load does not behave like a building load. Motors, conveyors, compressors and refrigeration cycle hard, and a set that is sized on nameplate figures alone will nuisance-trip on the first heavy start. We size against the real profile and, where the site needs it, run units in parallel.

Sets over 100kVA can be synchronised to run in series, which gives you redundancy, load sharing and the ability to take one machine offline for service without dropping the plant. We design, supply and commission those installations in-house, including the ComAp control systems that manage them.

  • Synchronised sets Units over 100kVA run in parallel for redundancy and load sharing.
  • Planned shutdown cover Temporary power that keeps production running through a switchboard or plant upgrade.
  • Vendor-agnostic servicing We maintain what is already on your site, whoever installed it.

What happens next

From your call to power on

No triage queue and no handballing. The person who picks up is the person organising your set.

  1. You call, we answer

    A real person on the phone any hour of any day, not an after-hours message bank. Tell us the site and what has gone down.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. We stay accountable

    Fuel management, monitoring and on-call technicians until your operation is back on, stable, and no longer needs us.

Industrial questions

Frequently asked

Can generators be run in parallel for a bigger load?

Yes. Units over 100kVA can be synchronised to run in series, which provides redundancy, load bearing and the ability to take a machine offline without dropping the site. We have designed and installed synchronised arrays up to 4 × 550kVA.

Do you support a planned shutdown or switchboard upgrade?

That is one of the most common jobs we do. We supply temporary generation sized to carry the site while the upgrade runs, install the fuel, exhaust and electrical connections, and de-mobilise once mains power is restored.

Will you service generators you did not supply?

Yes. We are vendor-agnostic and hold maintenance and breakdown contracts covering large fleets of client-installed generators, including one contract covering more than 100 units.

How do you prove the generator will carry the plant?

Load-bank testing. We apply a real, measured load to the set and record its behaviour, which gives you documented proof of capacity rather than a nameplate figure.
