What can a 1500 kVA generator supply?
At a power factor of 0.8, 1500 kVA corresponds to about 1,200 kW of active power. On a 400 V three-phase supply, the full-load current is about 2,165 A.
Generators in this power range are typically used for:
- Large industrial plants
- Hospital campuses and data centres
- Mining and energy sites
- Multi-generator systems running in parallel
These examples are general information; the same rating does not cover the same load at every site. Sizing must be based on the total power of the connected equipment, motor starting currents and how much runs at the same time.
To calculate the required rating from a list of equipment: Power Calculator
What determines the price of a 1500 kVA generator
Two generators of the same rating can differ in price depending on the equipment chosen. The main factors are:
- Engine brand and model
- Alternator brand and model
- Enclosure: container or open type
- Control panel and automatic transfer switch (ATS)
- Fuel tank capacity
- Delivery location and transport
A written price quote is prepared once you send us your power requirement and preferred equipment.
One set or several sets in parallel?
In this power class the load can be supplied by one set or by several sets running in parallel through a synchronization panel. In a parallel system one set can be stopped for maintenance while the others carry the load, and at low load one set can be shut down. The choice depends on the load profile, the redundancy required and site conditions, and is made at the quotation stage.
Standby power is for backup during mains failures. Where there is no grid, or the set will run for long periods, size the set on its prime rating.
Canopy sets go up to 1,100 kVA; sets above 1,100 kVA are supplied in a container: Containerised Generators
Frequently asked questions
How many kW is a 1500 kVA generator?
At a power factor of 0.8, 1500 kVA equals 1200 kW of active power (kW = kVA × 0.8). The models on this page have standby ratings of 1200–1320 kW.
How much fuel does a 1500 kVA generator use per hour?
According to manufacturer data, the models on this page use 212–237 litres per hour at 75% load. Consumption varies with load, engine and operating conditions; each model’s values are on its product page.
What does the price of a 1500 kVA generator depend on?
The price depends on the engine and alternator brand, the enclosure (container or open type), the control panel and ATS, the fuel tank capacity and the delivery location. A written price quote is prepared once you send us your power requirement and preferred equipment.
