How much fuel can a generator hold?

Most power generators are installed with an 8-hour, 24-hour (day tank) or 48-hour tank and are sized in kVA/kW with Primary and Standby Power ratings. A generator engine will have a load related litres-per-hour rating and the tank an overall capacity (fill) value. These values can be found on a specific generator’s datasheet or on the rating label applied to each generator.
