Frequent inspection and preventative maintenance of these backup electrical systems are necessary to ensure efficacy and safety of the power system. The Standby Generator Maintenance Checklist provides a comprehensive list of routine maintenance tasks required for a standby generator. The app organizes routine maintenance and preventative maintenance to be completed by the frequency in which it should be done. For instance, weekly maintenance includes ensuring adequate fuel levels, checking the circuit breaker is closed, and making sure there are no fuel leaks. Monthly requirements include checking engine coolant level, engine oil level, and the battery charger. An operator should complete a bi-annual inspection of the enclosure, battery cables and connections, and coolant heater. Finally, annual maintenance should be scheduled with a certified technician to change the oil and fuel filter, change spark plugs, check coolant concentration, and perform load bank testing.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
