  • Before you can decide whether you need a power generator, you should understand what a power generator is. Power generators provide a source of backup electricity that can be accessed in the event of a power outage. Power generators work by converting supply fuel in the form of gasoline, natural gas, or diesel into mechanical energy and then into electrical power. A standby generator at your place of business will ensure that your company will never have to experience downtime when a power outage occurs. Generators provide seamless transitions when the electrical supply fails in your area. In many events, you won’t even notice that the power has gone out because your power won’t skip a beat. Power generators are helpful in the following ways:

    • Ensuring the safety and comfort of all employees during an ice storm, snowstorm, or heat wave.
    • Continued productivity during a power outage, ensuring necessary equipment stays in operation.
    • Helping protect valuable computer data while allowing security systems to continue to operate.
    • Uninterrupted power supply during outages and brownouts to keep all your devices operating.

Potential Power Generator Problems

Power generators are not immune to problems and require periodic service and maintenance. You can count on the team at Mr. Electric of Paulding County to repair and service power generators. Check out some of the most common reasons you may need to call our team to service your commercial generator:

  • Battery Failure – The most common reason you’ll need power generator service is a battery failure. Sulfate can build up in the terminals, or you may also experience open cells, shorts, charger failure, tripped charger breakers, or dirty or loose connections.
  • Faulty Block Heater – Block heaters run frequently and can become faulty and produce a low coolant temp alarm.
  • Low Coolant – Power generators can run hot and shut down because of clogged radiators or internal and external coolant leaks.
  • Wet Stacking – Your generator may suffer from excessed no-load run time, which can result in the engine being over-fueled. Damage can occur because of unburned fuel, the accumulation of carbon particles, and condensed water, oil, and acids in the exhaust.
  • Air in Fuel System – Generators are a backup plan, and you likely won’t have to use them often. When they don’t run on a regular basis, air might enter the fuel lines, preventing the injectors from firing. Weekly inspections can ensure your generator is ready to go when you need it.
  • Controls Not in “Auto” – In this scenario, the power generator was not shut off and could be serving as the main control switch. This issue can be due to human error, emergency shutdown, open breakers, or switchgear or alarms not being correctly reset.
  • Out of Fuel – Your generator will shut down if the fuel level gets too low, so it does not draw in air.
  • Tripped Breaker – Someone may have accidentally pushed the emergency shut-off. If not, check the status of the automatic transfer switch. Do not manually operate the switch if you aren’t sure how to do so because it could cause severe injury or death.

  • Our commercial generator installers offer the choice of portable generators and standby generators for your business in Paulding County or Newnan, GA. Learn more about your commercial power generator options:

    • Portable Generators – This is the simpler and more inexpensive option for power generators. Portable generators can be connected to appliances with extension cords or wired into a subpanel by our licensed electricians. A portable generator will only supply power to essential devices, such as lighting, refrigerators, and some computers. Portable power generators provide a limited supply of electricity that is sufficient to power two to four outlets or a few specific circuits in an electrical panel. To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, be sure to keep these generators at least ten feet away from your building in a completely open area and away from any doors and windows. Portable generators should also not be located near awnings or carports.
    • Standby Generators – A standby generator will be permanently installed on the outside of your commercial building. The device will automatically start during a power outage to prevent any interruptions in the delivery of power. Standby power generators are powered by propane or natural gas, so they are quieter than portable models. A standby generator can operate every device in your building, so you may not even realize the power has gone out. Standby generators are more expensive than portable ones, but you’ll have peace of mind knowing that you’ll never be without power. Standby generator installation also requires a switch, subpanel, and hardwiring from our qualified electricians.
