Location: Scotland
Date of Delivery: 13th August 2025
Product Supplied: 200 kVA Perkins Generator (with adjustable breaker modification)

Project Background

In May 2025, a shopping centre in Scotland approached Generator Warehouse for a reliable standby power solution. As a brand-new customer, they required a generator capable of supporting critical retail operations during potential power outages, ensuring minimal disruption for tenants and shoppers.

The Solution

Generator Warehouse recommended a 200 kVA Perkins-powered generator — a model known for its reliability, fuel efficiency, and ease of maintenance.

To meet the site’s specific requirements, the generator was modified with an adjustable breaker, providing greater flexibility for load management.

Project Timeline

• Initial Quotation Issued: 8th May 2025

• Order Placed: 18th June 2025

• Delivery Date: 13th August 2025

This swift turnaround ensured that the shopping centre could put their contingency plans in place ahead of schedule.

Commissioning and Aftercare

Although installation was handled by the client’s own contractors, Generator Warehouse was requested to commission the generator on-site to ensure optimal setup and performance.

No spare parts package was supplied with this order, and servicing or maintenance has not yet been contracted.

Outcome

By supplying a robust 200 kVA Perkins generator tailored to the customer’s requirements, Generator Warehouse has provided the shopping centre with a dependable standby power solution. This ensures essential services can continue operating seamlessly during power interruptions — protecting both retailer operations and customer experience.
