A 40 kVA generator’s fuel consumption per hour depends on the load you’re running it at. A 100% load will consume between 8-10 litres of fuel hourly, while 75% loads will burn around 6-7 litres. If the generator runs at 50% capacity, it will consume around 4-5 litres of electricity per hour.
However, these numbers depend on the generator’s age, level of maintenance and the quality of your fuel.
Your generator’s maximum load depends on its power factor. Most generators have power factors of 0.8, which means a 40 kVA model will have a maximum recommended load of 32 kW.
