At ADE Power, we specialise in supplying high-quality 50Hz generators for residential, industrial, and commercial applications. A 50Hz generator set (also known as a 50Hz genset) features a diesel engine running at 1500rpm to generate electricity at a frequency of 50Hz (50 cycles per second). These units are built for reliable power generation in regions where the standard grid frequency is 50Hz, including the UK, Europe, Africa, most of Asia, and most of the Middle East.
What is 50Hz Electricity?
The mains supply frequency varies around the world. In the UK and across most of Europe, electrical systems are designed to operate at 50Hz, while countries such as the USA, Canada, and parts of South America use 60Hz. Choosing a 1500rpm generator set ensures your system matches the local grid frequency, whether used for prime power or as a standby generator in the event of a power cut. By running at 1500 revolutions per minute, our 1500rpm diesel generators run efficiently, offering a long lifespan and reliable performance.
ADE Power offer a comprehensive range of 50Hz frequency diesel generator sets designed to meet diverse power requirements. Our available range includes:
50Hz generators from 7 kVA (5.6 kW) up to 3000 kVA (2400 kW).
Our diesel generators are ideal for use in a wide variety of settings. Whether you need dependable backup power for a home or business, long-term standby power for critical facilities, or a robust supply for prime power such as on a construction site, ADE Power can provide the right solution. With many of our offerings including an integrated fuel tank as standard, our generator sets can deliver uninterrupted operation for extended periods.
Trusted Engines and Quality Assurance
All the 50 Hz gensets we offer are powered by world-class diesel engines from leading manufacturers including Baudouin, Cummins, Doosan, Mitsubishi, and Perkins. These engines are chosen for their proven reliability, efficiency, and global support networks.
