How to Calculate the Generator Size You Need

1

List All Equipment

Note down every appliance, machine, or light you need to run simultaneously. Include starting surge current for motors and ACs (typically 2–3× running wattage).

2

Add Up Total Watts

Sum the running wattage of all equipment. For ACs and motors, multiply by 2.5 for starting load. This gives you total watts needed.

3

Convert to KVA

Divide total watts by 1000 to get kW. Divide kW by 0.8 (power factor) to get KVA. Add 20% safety buffer. That is your generator size.

Generator Rental FAQs

What is the cost of generator rental per day in India?

Generator rental rates depend on capacity. 5 KVA (home/small office): ₹1,500/day. 15 KVA (small events): ₹2,500/day. 25 KVA (medium events/offices): ₹3,500/day. 62.5 KVA (large events/sites): ₹6,000/day. 125 KVA (industrial): ₹10,000/day. 250 KVA: ₹18,000/day. 500 KVA: ₹35,000/day. Fuel is typically charged separately at actuals.

What size generator do I need for my event or wedding?

For a small wedding (up to 200 guests, basic lighting and sound): 25 KVA is sufficient. For a medium wedding (200–500 guests, catering, AC, DJ): 62.5 KVA. For a large wedding (500+ guests, full lighting, multiple AC units, DJ, catering): 125 KVA. When in doubt, add 20% buffer to your estimated load — under-sized generators trip under peak load.

What is the difference between a silent generator and a regular DG set?

A silent (sound-proof) generator is enclosed in an acoustic cabinet that reduces noise from ~102 dB to 65–75 dB — equivalent to a quiet conversation. Silent DG sets are mandatory for residential areas, hotels, and events in noise-sensitive zones. Regular open-frame generators are louder but less expensive, and are used on construction sites and industrial locations where noise is not a concern.

Is fuel included in generator rental?

Fuel is typically NOT included in generator rental rates — client provides diesel at site. The operator monitors fuel levels and advises when refuelling is needed. Some vendors offer a fuel-included package at a fixed per-hour rate (typically ₹80–₹150/litre + operator overhead). Confirm fuel arrangement at the time of booking to avoid mid-event surprises.

What is the minimum rental period for a generator?

Minimum rental period is typically 1 day (8 working hours). For events spanning a weekend, 2-day packages offer 10–15% savings. Weekly rentals (7 days) offer 25–30% discount over the daily rate. Monthly rental packages are available for construction sites and industrial users — significantly cheaper than daily rates for long-duration needs.

How long does it take to deliver a generator to my site?

Standard delivery time is 4–24 hours after booking confirmation, depending on your city and generator capacity. Small units (5–25 KVA) can usually be dispatched same-day. Larger units (125 KVA+) may require 24–48 hours as they are often on active deployments. Always book at least 48 hours in advance for events to allow setup and load testing time.

What KVA generator is needed to power a 3BHK house during power cuts?

A typical 3BHK house with 2 ACs (1.5-ton each), refrigerator, washing machine, lights, fans, and TV requires approximately 8–12 KVA of capacity under full load. A 15 KVA generator provides comfortable backup for a 3BHK with all appliances running. A 5 KVA covers only essential loads (1 AC + lights + fans). Always calculate actual connected load before booking.

Can I rent a generator for a construction site without permanent power connection?

Yes, generator rental is the standard power solution for construction sites before permanent grid connection is established. For typical residential construction, a 25–62.5 KVA generator powers concrete mixers, grinders, welding equipment, and site lighting simultaneously. 24-hour (round-the-clock) deployment is available for sites with night-shift operations.
