Generator services

Generator rentals and temporary power

Contact EMPS for temporary generator requirements during planned work, equipment downtime, events or short-term power interruptions. Rental arrangements depend on the required capacity, hire period, site access and equipment availability.

Specify the temporary load

Provide the equipment list, expected running demand and any significant starting loads. Daily operating hours and the required duty rating affect generator selection. Sensitive equipment may also have specific supply-quality requirements.

Prepare the site and connection

Delivery access, generator placement, cable routes, ventilation, exhaust discharge and security must be considered before the unit arrives. Temporary electrical connections require appropriate protection and safe isolation from other supplies.

Agree operating responsibilities

The rental agreement should identify responsibility for delivery, installation, fuel, daily checks, operating supervision and collection. Call-out arrangements and charges should be clear before the hire starts.

Confirm availability and dates

Send the required delivery, operating and collection dates with your enquiry. Availability, transport and connection work are confirmed before a booking is agreed. Allow time for setup and testing ahead of the required operating period.
