30 kVA FAW Solar Backup with 4G Control — Thabazimbi

Generator30 kVA FAW — Single Phase

ApplicationFarm, small business & solar backup

The challenge

Understanding what the site actually required.

The property needed backup power for the farm and small business as well as generator support for charging the solar batteries when grid or solar power was insufficient. The owner also needed control while away from the property.

GenTech SA solution

Engineering the generator solution around the application.

GenTech SA supplied a 30 kVA single-phase FAW generator configured for solar and backup use and added a 4G communication module so the generator could be monitored, started and stopped remotely.

Project takeaway

Remote monitoring can make a solar-backup generator far more practical on farms and properties where the owner is not always on site.
