Alberton lies on the southern edge of Ekurhuleni, with the R59 running past it and Johannesburg South on its western side. The town has two quite different kinds of generator work. Alrode is one of the East Rand’s large industrial areas, and its factories and warehouses run heavy diesels that must carry motors and process loads for hours.
The residential suburbs are mostly family homes, from the older streets of New Redruth and Randhart to Brackenhurst and Brackendowns, while Meyersdal’s hillside estates include larger homes with bigger automatic sets. On home sets we focus on the battery, the charger and fuel that has aged in the tank. On larger Meyersdal sets we also test the automatic changeover.
Most of Alberton is supplied by the City of Ekurhuleni, and we plan Alberton visits with Germiston and the rest of the East Rand.

What happens next
Charlie, lead technician: Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Degree in Electrical Engineering, Diesel Plant Fitter. Generator specialists since 2000.
Alrode factory sets fail under long, heavy runs, while Alberton home sets fail after long idle spells. We test for the pattern that fits your property.
We test the battery under load, the charger and the starter on home sets before suggesting a new battery.
We check the radiator core, coolant, hoses, fan belt and airflow, and the load at shutdown.
Dirty diesel, blocked filters and weak lift pumps starve a loaded engine. We test fuel delivery under load.
On automatic sets we check the controller, the mains sensing and the battery that powers them.
We meter the output as motors start and check the AVR, governor and set size.
We pressure-test the cooling system when it is cold and replace perished hoses, seals or radiator parts.
Alrode factories and warehouses depend on standby diesels that must start, transfer and run for hours. When one lets the plant down, we work through it on site: the ATS and controller if the factory stays dark, fuel quality and cooling if the engine falters partway through a long run. A load bank test afterwards shows the repaired set can carry the plant. Planned servicing and maintenance plans for Alrode sets are on the East Rand servicing and maintenance page.
Bigger homes often run larger automatic sets that cover pumps, gates, security and home offices. We service the engine, test the automatic start and transfer with a simulated mains failure, and measure the voltage at the house as well as at the set.
Alberton work spans heavy industrial diesels in Alrode, automatic sets on larger Meyersdal homes and canopied home sets across the residential suburbs.
