Preparing for Power Outages in Thailand with Emergency Generators
The world is experiencing unprecedented and unpredictable climate changes, and Thailand is no exception. Typhoons causing heavy rains and flooding have been increasing, leading to more frequent and severe damages.
Additionally, when earthquakes or tsunamis occur, infrastructure such as electricity and water supply often suffers damage, resulting in power outages.
Governments and local authorities are often slow to respond, and more and more, people and businesses affected by disasters have to rely on self-defense measures to overcome these challenges.
The number of electrical devices that cannot be turned off, such as mobile phones, computers, radios, heating and cooling systems, pumps, dialysis machines, suction devices, and oxygen equipment, is increasing every year. However, facilities capable of supplying power during disasters are limited, and the preparations for power outages are not sufficient.
In such emergencies, the last line of defense is an emergency generator powered by LP gas, which can be stored on-site.
While electricity and city gas cannot be stored, LP gas can be stored in containers and bulk tanks, allowing its use even during disasters. It is certain that users who have installed emergency generators will play a significant role in contributing to their communities during a disaster.
LP gas also has other advantages, such as long-term storage capability, being a cleaner energy compared to gasoline or diesel, and ease of transportation. *Please ensure to consult with medical equipment companies, doctors, and hospitals before connecting and using LP gas generators with medical devices.
Supplying Power to Indispensable Electrical Devices Even During Emergencies with LP Gas Generators
The number of indispensable electrical devices, such as medical equipment and PC servers, is increasing. However, neglecting proper inspection and maintenance can result in generators failing to operate during emergencies, cutting off power supply.
During the Great Hanshin Earthquake, the Great East Japan Earthquake, and the Kumamoto Earthquake, there were reports of emergency generators failing to operate or catching fire due to lack of inspection and maintenance. This has led to stricter inspections of emergency generators in recent years.
Generac emergency generators offer a wide range of options to accommodate various applications and fuels. They provide optimal power capacity and allow you to choose from LP gas or city gas as fuel and single-phase or three-phase power, depending on the installation conditions.
In the United States, Generac generators that meet the stringent requirements of the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) are used as emergency backup power sources in police stations, fire stations, and emergency call centers.
