We want the power generator to supply power to a computer system in our home or business; what are the issues involved?
A. Most generators sold by GeneratorJoe are designed to power computers. The majority of 1800 RPM and 3600 RPM liquid-cooled generators use automatic voltage regulated (AVR-Electronic module) generator systems that provide from 1% to 2% voltage regulation, which meets or exceeds the local utility power specifications. Some portable generators with capacitor regulation (voltage control from 5% to 10% or without AVR) can present a problem for some computer systems if the computer is plugged directly into the electrical circuit and does not use a battery regulated power supply or UPS. Another factor that impacts computers is the speed control, (which effects frequency in hertz) which is normally 3-5% with an engine mechanical governor regulation and .25% to .5% regulation with an electronic engine governor system. Mechanically governed systems are normally sufficient to provide clean power for sensitive electronics like computers. For computer service centers and other communication appli
