Hi Folks,
Northern California is getting pounded hard by storms, as we do most every year, and have quite a few electric outages as a result. Of particular note however is that we have experienced a number of remote and inaccessible microwave backhaul sites where the on-site generator has failed to engage, leaving us with 9 hours of battery. Sometimes, fortunately, that's enough to carry us through. Other times, like now, it's not. I don't want to lecture the site owners about routine testing procedures and so forth, but it seems that we need to become experts on the topic and we would like to offer these site owners a solution to test and verify generator operation. Does anyone have any pointers to possible solutions or vendor white papers I could look at? We probably want to verify start, read voltage to verify output, and maybe even gauge fuel in the tanks if thats possible.
No sales droids please, just helpful information based on experience at this time.
Thank you.
