i have just come back to the office after being called to a property in the country side that has a propane fired generator.
there appears to be no tranfer switch and the set looks in really bad condition, IE, the hose clamps for the gas connection are a bit corroded and the hose looks a bit bulging in places, i have disconnected the outgoing single phase SWA and the gas bottle.

now here comes the problem,
the new owners of the property want a gen set (as the power cuts are numerous) but it not my feild of expertise,

load required;
lighting = approx 6 amp, lower floor only
power = approx 20 amp 2 x double outlets

any ideas on transfer switch and dis board arrangements??

gen set, gas, diesel or petrol, ?
autostarter or manual,?

all help would be greatful as this client spends over 100k with us over the year.
