How powerful does it have to be to run a household?
We are looking into exchanging 7 brand new generators (some petrol, some diesel) about 6,5 kva each into a more powerful one.
How much could one get for each? Any ideas?

well ebony i become聽 a little bit聽 of聽 expert.

15-25 kv generators聽 brand new are about 13- 15k USD-聽 yes聽 that expensive. You聽 buy聽 second hand one聽 for 7-9k Ghana聽 cedis but this聽 go聽 quickly.

for聽 6.5kv you聽 can buy聽 a Kinpor brand聽 for 1,800-2,400 Ghana Cedis or Rushton聽 for 2,500 ghana聽 cedis

Thanks Nims! I know absolutely nothing about generators so I am really grateful.
That麓s really expensive. I realise that we did a good deal when we bought them from some desparate Irish salesmen .
What kind of household can a 15 kv generator support? If you need AC for a couple of bed rooms, fridge, deep freezer and light would that work?

15kv should聽 聽carry a three bedroom house with all appliances.

I will not go into the deep technical calculations to evaluate the needed Generator power in KVA, to commonly knows amperes.

1 KVA = 1000 VA
Voltage x Amperes = VA

in Ghana, Voltage is 220 and amperes are the needed consumption. Each device indicates the consumption in Amp or Watts ( Watts/220 = Amp)
In your case sum up all devices you want to run at the same time on the generator and you will be able to get the Effective VA needed.
Add 10 to 15% extra capacity, and you are done.

Hope this helps, for prices I did not yet relocate to Ghana to give advice

cool joe, I聽 am confused. Can we have this in English

Nims,

I will go with examples maybe it would be easier.
6 lamp bubbles of 60 watts = 360 Watts = 1.63 Amps
1 fridge 1.2 Apms
Plat Screen TV 300 Watts = 1.36 Amp
A/C 3 Amps
1.63+1.2+1.36+3=7.19 Amps
7.19 Apms + 15% = 8.25 Amps
8.25*220 = 1815 VA = 1.8 KVA

please note the values I given are just examples. you should get them from each device.

Nims: Lol! I thought I was the only one who didn麓t understand and was too afraid to show it.
Cool Joe: I think that I finally understand it. Thanks.

hi,friend

generator divide into single phase and three phase.

The single phase 1kva=1kw

The three phase聽 1kva=0.8kw

hello there,how much is that generator which is very less noisy when is on and do you supply them?Reply thank u.

hi,friend
The 16kw/20kva generator price is USD2520/PCS

The 20kw/25kva generator price is USD2700/PCS

You can let me know your mail,then i send detail information to you.

My mail is sale1@boomasterpower.com聽 and skype:sammyliu9
