Generators are devices designed to provide temporary electric power by converting mechanical energy produced by petrol or diesel engine into electricity. Generators are an ideal solution for both commercial and personal use. These portable devices are ideal to use with electric-powered tools on construction sites, powering equipment on a boat or charging devices on campsites. Power outlets in the generator allow for connecting any electrical devices.

Generators can be compact, lightweight devices ideal for household use or commercial, heavy-duty 3-phase generators.
