A power cut at a clinic, school or workshop is more than an inconvenience, and without safe generator installation in Kikuyu the backup often ends up as a tangle of extension cables. Doing it properly means the right size of generator, a proper changeover and a setup anyone on site can rely on.

Nerpax Systems supplies and installs generators for homes, businesses and institutions. We start by listing what must keep running, from lights and computers to fridges and pumps, and size the generator with headroom for motor start-up. Then we install it with a manual changeover switch or an automatic transfer switch (ATS) that handles outages without anyone lifting a finger.

Placement matters too: good ventilation, a stable base, protection from rain and consideration for neighbours. We connect, test a simulated outage and return to mains, and show you the routine checks. Our base in the Kikuyu area keeps us close for surveys. Request a quote to begin.

Generator Installation in Kikuyu: FAQs

Can you connect a generator I already own in Kikuyu?

Yes. We inspect the generator, confirm its capacity matches what you want to run, and install a proper changeover so it connects safely to your wiring. If the generator is too small for your essential loads, we will tell you and suggest which circuits to prioritise.

Should my home use a generator, solar or both?

Solar suits regular daytime use and short outages, while a generator handles long blackouts and heavy loads. Many homes combine both, with the generator as a final backup. We look at your usage and outage patterns and recommend the setup that makes most sense for your budget.
