Why Choose a Standby Generator?

Automatic Operation

With an automatic changeover switch, your generator starts within seconds of a power failure — no manual intervention required, day or night.

Full Power Capacity

A properly sized generator can power your entire property simultaneously — geysers, air-conditioners, heavy machinery, borehole pumps, and irrigation systems without limitation.

Long-Term Reliability

With regular servicing by Quadron's technicians, a quality standby generator will provide decades of reliable backup power when you need it most.

Which Generator Size Do I Need?

Generator sizing depends on the total electrical load you want to support. As a general guide:

  • 5–8 kVA: Essential home circuits (lights, fridge, TV, laptop, 1 air-con)
  • 10–15 kVA: Larger homes with multiple air-conditioners and a geyser
  • 20–40 kVA: Small to medium commercial premises
  • 50 kVA+: Industrial and large commercial applications

Quadron will calculate your exact load requirements and recommend the most cost-effective generator for your situation.
