## Frequently asked questions

### Can I hire a portable generator from Hirepool?

Yes, you can hire a portable generator from any local general hire branch. You can also hire portable generators from Hirepool’s [lighting and power branch in Penrose](https://www.hirepool.co.nz/branches/power-and-lighting-auckland.md). Portable generators are great to hire, as they can power your site and equipment when working remotely or without access to power.

### What size generator do I need?

The size of generator you need is dependent on the drawing current required for the machine. To work this out, you need to multiply the wattage of tools or appliances you are a using, multiplied by the number of them. This will give you the watts needed and help you choose the right generator for the job.

For more advice, chat to your local Hirepool team who can help you select the right generator for your job.

### How to use a generator?

To use a generator, first start the generator then plug in the power socket, splitter or residual power device and you’re ready to go. Find out more on how to choose and best use a generator with Hirepool’s [Advanced Gear Guide: Generators guide](https://www.hirepool.co.nz/guides/trade/advanced-gear-guide-generators.md)
