Aoa Fellow PakWheel Members,
POWER.........From a 17 grade officer to a minister president/prime minister .........everyone is hungry for POWER. We being their "Awam" are blessed with the blunders, stupidities and their hunger for MONEY as well. I am literally hopeless regarding the current scenario of our country and the futuristic plans of our corrupt and senseless leaders. Anyways, it a long discussion and better to put an end to it.
As the summers are approaching so is the threat of dreadful long hours Electricity load shedding and this time........Even more worse than the last years. I have been doing research for a long time on alternative sources of energy in these difficult times and after considering/accounting a lot of factors, I have reached to the conclusion for installing a big diesel generator which can fulfil all my requirements.
Lately I posted a thread requiring suggestions before taking up this big and expensive project. (Link attached)

I am really thankful to @Skill who properly and timely directed my attention to Mr. Babar who actually is not only a humble and genuine soul but also an expert when it comes to generators. He gave me very thorough insight regarding my decision and advised me to go for Lister Petter Generators.
Lister Petter is a 2 decades old engine company and are one of the leading brands in power generation. They have their manufacturing facility in UK. Pana Communications Inc. is their sole distributor in Pakistan for sales, service and parts.
After a lot of queries and discussion with the company representative/engineers I finally settled for their 15 KvA model. It has got a Lister Petter Diesel Engine with their own patent Alternator and Control Panel and everything is housed in a sound and vibration proof canopy. This whole package is made and imported from UK. The Model no. is LLD 190A. See the link for the complete Specs sheet (Have highlighted the features relevant to LLD 190A).

I will be posting all the pictures and updates regarding the complete civil, electrical and installation works here. Once installed and running, will share the fuel consumption too as they claim to be the most fuel efficient engines. Their statistics show a 1.2 to 1.5 L of diesel per Hour at 75% load.
Hope you'll enjoy.
PS: My previous HONDA EM6000GN genuine Gas generator with ATS is therefore up for sale. Kindly visit this link for details. https://www.pakwheels.com/forums/sale/209979-fs-honda-made-japan-gas-generator-em6000gn-free-ats
