In the centre of what is reputed to be the finest 2,000 acres of grouse shooting moors, Lord ‘I’ being wheel chair bound has his relatively modest country house equipped with a wheel chair lift taking him from floor to floor.  Having been trapped in the lift several times and once for 18 hours, that latest imprisonment was a break too far.

This proud building standing above fine moor land vista had been rewire following the end of WW1 with what can only be called a ‘colonial’ approach to power distribution catering for splendid country weekends.

Being remote, off the beaten track, mains power supply is far from stable.  Rambling ill maintained wooden power lines drifting for miles and miles over hill and dale result in a far from reliable mains electricity supply.

Not unusual for such a building in this part of the England, the power supply is just a two wire single phase feed from a transformer mounted on top of a wooden pole some way down the valley and surrounded by trees.  Winds clashing live cables together exasperate below limits voltage levels resulting in ever more power disruption escalating the likelihood of being trapped in the lift.  Hence the need for an emergency standby generator with automatic change over switch.

Finding us via our web site www.topgen.co.uk,  DSI Power engineers completed a site survey establishing the most cost effective way of preventing any further involuntary imprisonment between floor levels.  With a bit of luck, enough power left over to power his kitchen and the gardeners cottage next door.  ALL at a price that will not send shivers up your spine?

Using a corner of the stables our P12000SHEPI converted to run from LPG gas along with four 95 Kilo gas cylinders giving several days run time just in case they get snowed in, fitted as snug as a pony in a rug.

Now; Power Cut – Volt drop – No Problem – in less than 10 seconds his TopGen Automatic Standby Generator takes over supplying power – ensuing every one bags a brace.
