Petrol and diesel portable generators for construction, events, agriculture and standby use, including inverter models for sensitive electronics. All from Pramac; for silent power indoors, see our portable power stations.
Add up the running load of everything you will power at once, then allow for starting surge. Motors, compressors and some power tools draw several times their running current as they start, and an undersized generator will trip or stall at that moment rather than during normal running.
Petrol generators are lighter and suit occasional, short-duration use. Diesel units suit longer run times and heavier daily use. Inverter models give a more stable output, which matters for laptops, battery chargers and other sensitive electronics.
On UK construction sites, 110V is the standard supply for portable tools, so check the outlets suit the equipment you will run, or use a transformer. Never run a generator indoors or in an enclosed space, as exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide.
Add the running load of everything used at the same time, then allow extra for anything with a motor, which draws much more as it starts. Our power calculator can help you work it out.
No. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide. Run it outside with the exhaust directed away from buildings, doors and windows.
UK construction sites use 110V for portable tools. Check the outlets on the generator match your tools, or use a site transformer.
