FAQs
What generator capacities do you provide for industrial projects in Jellico?
We stock and build industrial-grade diesel, natural-gas, and dual-fuel generators ranging from 100 kW to 4 MW in single-unit configurations. For facilities that need more than 4 MW, we design modular paralleling systems that can combine multiple units to exceed 20 MW of total capacity. All generator sets are engineered to operate reliably in the Cumberland Mountains’ temperature swings and are available in open-skid, weather-proof, or sound-attenuated enclosures.
How do you determine the right generator size for my facility?
Our electrical engineers perform a detailed load analysis that includes a review of your utility bills, a walk-through to identify critical and non-critical loads, and measurements of motor starting currents using power-quality meters. We then apply a 20–25 % margin for future expansion and ensure the selected generator can handle the highest anticipated step-load without exceeding a 15 % voltage dip or 10 % frequency deviation. A written sizing report is provided so you can see all assumptions and calculations.
What codes and standards do your generator installations comply with in Jellico?
Every project is designed and installed in accordance with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC 2023), NFPA 110 for emergency and standby power systems, and the Tennessee State Electrical Code. We also meet all applicable EPA Tier 4 emissions requirements for new diesel units and adhere to Jellico’s building and noise ordinances. For healthcare or mission-critical sites, we incorporate additional NFPA 99 and ISO 8528 provisions as needed.
What maintenance services do you offer and how often are they required?
We provide three maintenance tiers: (1) Basic quarterly inspections, (2) Semi-annual preventive service that includes oil, filter, and coolant changes, and (3) Comprehensive annual service with load-bank testing up to 80 % of rated capacity. For EPA-regulated diesel sets, we also handle fuel sampling and tank compliance checks. Our computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) tracks hours and elapsed time so your generator never misses a service interval.
Can your generators integrate with existing power-management systems or renewable sources?
Yes. All our generator controls use Modbus TCP/IP or Ethernet/IP protocols, allowing seamless integration with most building management systems (BMS) and SCADA platforms. We can also supply automatic transfer switches with demand-response logic that prioritizes solar or battery output and starts the generator only when additional capacity is required. If micro-grid functionality is desired, our switchgear includes droop- and isochronous-load-sharing for smooth paralleling with inverters.
What is the typical lead time and process for turnkey generator installation in Jellico?
Lead time for in-stock standard units (≤750 kW) is 4–6 weeks from purchase order to commissioning. Custom systems or units above 1 MW average 12–18 weeks due to factory build and UL 2200 certification. The turnkey process includes (1) site survey and engineering, (2) permitting and concrete pad construction, (3) delivery and craning, (4) electrical and fuel connections, (5) start-up, testing, and customer training, and (6) final AHJ inspection and documentation hand-over.
