DG Rental · 1250 kVA
1250 kVA Diesel Generator on Rent
A continuous-process plant where even a controlled stop costs a full batch.
What it powers
A continuous-process plant where even a controlled stop costs a full batch.
Campus central plants — chiller banks, STPs and common infrastructure on one bus.
The largest single-set rating in the fleet before parallel banks take over.
Size for starting current, not running load — direct-on-line motor starting draws six to seven times full-load current. Send us your load list and we size it free of charge.

Transcribed from the Cummins India specification sheet for the C1250D5P. Ratings are prime power per ISO 8528; site conditions can derate output — confirm against your load list. Dimensions are for the open set; acoustic treatment is engineered per site.
Rental, the way we run it
Rates move with tenure, site and season — so we quote same-day, not never.
- Set delivered, positioned and commissioned — acoustic treatment engineered per site
- Scheduled B-check maintenance every 250–300 running hours, included
- 4–6-hour breakdown response on live contracts
Deposits, lock-ins and the standby clause are on the rental terms page — no surprises at work-order stage.

Frequently asked questions
What does a 1250 kVA generator run?
A 1250 kVA (1000 kW) set carries continuous-process plants and campus central infrastructure — chiller banks, STPs, house power — on a single bus. Beyond this, requirements move to synchronised multi-set banks, which we engineer and operate as turnkey deployments.
Is the 1250 kVA set CPCB IV+ compliant?
CPCB IV+ applies to gensets with engines up to 800 kW — the C1250D5P’s engine is above that threshold, so it is governed by the MoEFCC’s separate emission standards for >800 kW diesel engines, not CPCB IV+. It is fully legal to deploy on rental; stack height, siting and consent conditions are engineered into the deployment, and we advise on state-specific requirements where they apply.
What does it take to place a 1250 kVA set on site?
This is trailer-and-crane territory — the C1250D5P’s open set runs 5.2 m and roughly 11,235 kg wet — so we plan the crane day, cable runs, acoustic treatment and (where applicable) synchronisation panels as part of the deployment, not as surprises. Site survey, delivery, commissioning and scheduled B-checks are all included.
