Home Back-up Generator
Home back-up generators are typically fixed-installation units. They are paired with an automatic transfer switch (ATS). When the mains power goes off, the ATS sends a signal to turn the generator on and sends another signal to switch it off again when the mains power comes back on.
Home backup generators typically start at kilowatts and go up to 40 kilowatts, depending on the required size. We recommend our Target Power single-phase generators for home backup because they are budget-friendly and designed specifically for residential backup. Pramac or Ferbo generators would also be good options because they are compact. So, if you are tight on space, these would be suitable choices.

We offer a range of additional equipment to support your portable diesel generator, including mobile road trailers for easy transport, bulk diesel fuel tanks for extended operation, and automatic transfer switches (ATS) for seamless power transitions during outages.

Frequently asked Questions
How Big Of Generator Do You Need To Run A House
Typically the back up power needed to back up an average sized 4 bedroom house in the uk is 5000w to 10000w, 5kw to 10kw. Generators typically only have a 50% step load, this is the amount of load that can be taken on the generator at anyone time. So we would recommend calculating the kw/h consumption, and multiplying it by 2 for the recommended generator size.
Do You Need A Electrician To Hook Up A Generator?
Even if you are competent, we always recommend using a certified and qualified electrician to install a generator. This is something Target Power can assist you with.
Are Home Back Up Generators Worth It
It depends on the circumstances, we have installed generators for home back up to residential properties only requiring 5kw of power. If you have sensitive equipment, or you work from home need power for emergency it is something we recommend. Even in well established built up areas in the UK there are power cuts and brown outs, so if losing power impacts your life or lively hood, we suggest it.
