paano niyo ginagamit gen set niyo? tuloy-tuloy hanggang maubos na gas then karga na lang ulit? or meron set time then off niyo muna?

as far as what we use is concerned, habang umaandar, pag mababa na ang fuel level, there will be a warning sound

so karga na dapat bago maubusan

sa mga generator na walang warning sound, dapat bantayan ang fuel level

pag mababa na, magkarga

ako kasi ginagawa ko kung running na for 5 hrs, off ko muna for 30 minutes to 1 hr before andar nanaman,

thanks for the replies.

maiba naman ako konti...advisable ba to make a small bahay bahay for the genset, with around 2 to 3 -foot elevation? What would a typical one be made of? i would assume the base would be made of wood or any similar material that can deal with vibration.

Any chance na mag overheat siya due to inadequate ventilation?

I'm assuming na mas mahal yung mga sound-proof at diesel na generator, but can you give me an idea kung mga magkano kaya yun?

As for my case, I fill it up, and let it run....

Longest I ran it without re-fill was about 12 hours..... (Hindi pa rin ubos ang fuel)....

ano genset mo? diesel or gas? ilan capacity ng power ratings niya ang load?

**CVT** · July 19th, 2010 01:09 PM

^^^ It is rated at 3KVA, Honda genset, gasoline fuel.

Load is about 120W of lighting, a refrigerator, 2/5 electric fans for about 12/8 hours, 1HP of (water) pressure pump (kicked in about 5-6 times during the 12-hr period), TV for about 3 hours.... Bought this genset about a decade ago... Still works okay for my 'brownout' setup....

We used to have one during the Cory days (diesel fed good enough to run a few TV's and electric fans pero no air-con liit lang kasi) tapos around the end of the Ramos days where brownouts were rarer binenta na. Until now wala pa rin kami...

question, paano niyo plug yun wire ng gen set sa MTS niyo? ganito kasi s akin meron outlet ng pareho sa A/C kaso natatakot ako baka masunog pag matagal naka on. never ko pa na try ng more than 5 hrs straight na open yun gen set namin eh

para mapaayos ko na kung hinde recommended ganito
