A generator for providing electrical power, the generator being provided with a control unit for controlling the generator, wherein the generator includes a communication receiver such that the generator is able to be remotely controlled by instructions received by way of the communication receiver. A method of supplying electrical power including the steps of: providing a plurality of generators rated at a first capacity but restricted to a second capacity, the second capacity being lower than the first capacity; leasing the generators to customers at a lease rate commensurate with the second capacity; on approval from the customers, selectively remotely derestricting the generators to operate at the first capacity and at a lease rate commensurate with the first capacity.
A generator for providing electrical power, the generator being provided with a control unit for controlling the generator, wherein the generator includes a communication receiver such that the generator is able to be remotely controlled by instructions received by way of the communication receiver.
A generator having an internal combustion engine, including a plurality of pistons, a plurality of cylinders, and an output shaft, wherein the pistons are arranged for reciprocating motion within the cylinders, driven by combustion, and the pistons are coupled to the output shaft by a coupling such that said reciprocating motion of the piston drives rotation of the output shaft, wherein the engine includes a first cylinder bank and a second cylinder bank, wherein drive for a camshaft of the first cylinder bank from the output shaft is at one end of the output shaft, and wherein drive for a camshaft of the second cylinder bank from the output shaft is at an opposite end of the output shaft.
A generator having an internal combustion engine, the engine including a piston, a cylinder, and an output shaft, wherein the piston is arranged for reciprocating motion within the cylinder, driven by combustion, and the piston is coupled to the output shaft by a coupling such that said reciprocating motion of the piston drives rotation of the output shaft, wherein the engine includes an engine cylinder block formed as separable parts, being a crankcase and at least one cylinder block.
A generator having an internal combustion engine, the engine including a piston, a cylinder, and an output shaft, wherein the piston is arranged for reciprocating motion within the cylinder, driven by combustion, and the piston is coupled to the output shaft by a coupling such that said reciprocating motion of the piston drives rotation of the output shaft, wherein the engine includes a crankcase formed of a plurality of separable like parts, each of the like parts being cast as a common part.
A method of supplying electrical power including the steps of:
