Total TP250001 Diesel Generator 5 kW Price in Pakistan

The Total TP250001 Diesel Generator 5 kW is a Total generator rated 5 kW (about 6.2 kVA). A generator's kVA rating times 0.8 gives the usable kW, and it is best to run loads up to about 80% of that, so the engine does not overheat.

What it can run: one 1 to 1.5 ton AC (inverter AC is easier to start); a fridge and a water pump; fans, lights and a TV for the whole house; an iron or a microwave (not all at once). Start the biggest motor load (AC, pump or fridge) first, then switch on the rest.

Diesel generators use less fuel per hour and last longer under long daily running, which suits shops, offices and long load shedding.

Check the fuel tank size and running time on the box: they depend on the load.

Safety: always run a generator outdoors in open air, never inside a room, garage or shop, because the exhaust contains carbon monoxide. Use a changeover switch so power cannot flow back into WAPDA lines.

Prefer a quiet backup without fuel? Compare a lithium battery with a solar inverter (All Solar Systems) or a portable power station (Power Stations).
