Jordan Generator Buying Guide and Tips

• Sizing your generator: Add up wattage of essentials (fridge, lights, Wi-Fi, small AC). For homes, 2–5 kW inverters often suffice. Villas and SMEs may need 10–40 kVA diesel sets.
• Noise levels: Inverter generators are ~50–60 dB, while open-frame petrol or diesel units may exceed 75–85 dB. Check local neighborhood restrictions.
• Fuel type: Petrol inverters are easy for occasional outages. Diesel excels for long runtimes, efficiency, and heavy loads. Dual-fuel (petrol/LPG) is an emerging option in Jordan.
• Electrical safety: Always use a licensed electrician for ATS or manual changeover installation. Never back-feed the grid.
• Power quality: For electronics, choose pure sine inverter generators or AVR-equipped sets with surge protection.
• Maintenance: First oil change at 20 hours, then every 100 hours or annually. Stock up on oil, filters, and plugs. Test-run monthly.
• Placement: Keep outdoors under a ventilated cover; avoid enclosed spaces. Consider a running cover.
• Accessories: Wheel kits, fuel cans, funnels, rated generator cords, and UPS for routers.
