[QUOTE="AJ123, post: 7219266, member: 149107"] Have an old barn in the middle of the farm, long Way from any grid power cables, I would like to have an electricity supply so I can use the shed for more myself or possibly let out for non agri uses. No huge requirements, it’s not a grain store so won’t be running fans or anything. I would like 3 phase though to keep the option of alternative use open. Is a generator a viable long term option? I haven’t had a connection quote back yet but I’m guessing it will be huge. If using a generator is the Internal wiring the same and then plug it in where the mains would otherwise come in? Are generators feasible to work with heat pumps? They are a constant low requirement, not sure that fits well with a generators efficient zone? presumably a modern setup can kick it in and out automatically when needed? Last question, how do I know what size I need? [/QUOTE]
