Abstract :
Generator design and development is undergoing radical change, not only in the hardware that is being designed, but in the way in which it is being designed. The changes are resulting in products that better fit the needs of the marketplace, are of high quality, and move quickly from concept to reality, bringing the customer added value at each step. In particular, issues such as speed and ease of installation, ease of operation, and minimum maintenance costs are of great importance to the customer.
