Standby Generators Insure Against
Costly Interruptions Of Power
Electric power failures don’t
often happen, and they usually
don’t last long. But any inter
rupted service may mean in
convenience and perhaps a
considerable loss of money,
especially in today’s electrical
ly dependent, large-scale farm
ing operations.
A standby generator on the
farm makes sure important
equipment will keep running
despite any power failure,
points out Tom Williams, ru
ral civil defense specialist at
the University of Delaware.
Both engine-drive and tractor
drive models are available; ei
ther type can be permanently
installed or portable. Engine
drive generators are available
with manual or automatic
starting
Tractor-driven units cost
half as much for the same ca
pacity as the engine-drive.
Since a tractor is more fre
quently used, it will probably
be easier to staid
If a tractor isn’t available,
the manial start engine-driven
generator will be the least ex
pensive alternative Also, these
can usually be put into oper
ation more quickly than trac
tor driven units, according to
Williams
Automatic engine driven
generators, in which the unit
starts automatically if power
fails, are the most expensive USE MOLDY CORN SLOWLY
They are used only if the serv- Don’t feed moldy corn to
ice must not be interrupted breeding swine, says Dwighit
for any length of time The E Younkdn, extension , live

An automatic sequence start
ing system will provide full
load service, Williams says.
However, the part-load system
is entirely practical for most
farms which only need some
of the electrical equipment op
erating at one time. Equipment
must be turned on after the
generator is operating, and
the load is limited to genera
tor capacity.
Restarting an electric motor
requires at least three times
as much current as running it.
With a part load system, it’s
necessary to start the largest
motor first and let it come to
speed before connecting other
equipment. To figure the gen
erator capacity you will need
for an emergency, add up the
wattages of all the lights, ap
pliances and motors includ
ing starting wattage that
must operate at one time.
When you’re debating wheth
er or not to buy standby gen
erators, balance the installa
tion and maintenance costs of
the various systems against
the possible loss and incon
venience caused by power
failures, Williams advises.
He stresses the importance
of consulting with your power
supplier before buying or con
necting a standby generator.
