Hi Sur, dat bes hit!

Currently (pun intended) looking for a 3 Ph Genny, of about 100kva.

A very confusing subject (to me at least), but time enough until after I get the Mill del and installed.

Since I would prob really need to read the Motor spec plate , apparently.

If you let me have the size of the motors I will give you a rough idea. The biggest motor will probably be the one in the pic. If its say 10kw you can get away with a 40 kva just depends on what else is likely to start and run at the same time. On paper the start up current is 6 times running but in practice you can get away with 3 times. It can get complicated and sometimes its worth doing a rough calculation and hiring a generator in for a week while you set it up. I would think you could get away with a 60 kva but need some details first.
