REC296-1363 | 10 - Infrastructure | Due to the age of the generator, reliability and reparability risk due to age and the apparent under capacity of the generator it is recommend to replace the generator with a new generator and associated control system designed for the current load requirements and allowance for some future expansion. |
REC296-1352 | 10 - Infrastructure | A monthly testing regime needs to be developed that will allow the generator to be tested at full essential load capacity and to ensure that 4 hour monthly testing can be done every month. |
REC296-1357 | 10 - Infrastructure | Monthly test results need to be accurately recorded. |
REC296-1362 | 10 - Infrastructure | Carry out a detailed audit of the current Hospital essential loads to determine the current load requirements of the Hospital. |

REC296-1353 | 10 - Infrastructure | Regular annual testing at 100% on a load bank needs to be scheduled into a maintenance schedule. |
REC296-1358 | 10 - Infrastructure | If the existing generator is capable of providing the current essential power requirements then the generator needs a major inspection and overhaul all items that may need to be replaced due to age and condition. This includes checking compression, oil pressure, coolant pumping and all other critical components and may actually require providing a temporary generator while the Hospital generator receives a major inspection and possible re build. A ball park figure to do this would be $50,000.00 plus cranage and transport to Detroit workshop probably another $10,000.00 then a temporary generator would need to be hired and installed which could run into $10’s of thousands of dollars depending on how long the engine was out of service. For the money that would be spent checking and rebuilding the existing engine it would be recommended to replace the generator with a new generator. |
