Engineering & Specifications
A typical building generator system would either be considered primary or secondary power. Primary power, or medium voltage, is a 15,000 volt system, where secondary power is a low voltage system of 480 volts. Generally the cutoff is about 600 volts, if you're needing more than 600 volts then the medium voltage generator would be needed and anything lower, is secondary voltage. We determine the necessary voltage required, by evaluating your buildings utility bill. We also use power monitoring systems to determine your buildings energy demand. Various information about your system gives us a deeper insight to what is required. When your compressors motors first start, this produces a "starting inrush." This inrush uses a lot of energy and needs to be considered.
