Power generator

After a lightning storm in march 2011 the external power was lost but the emergency generator did not start. To avoid a repeat of the generator not starting some work was done to improve its functioning. The diesel in the tank was replaced and a maintenance plan has started to replace this on a more regular basis. A complete service of the generator was made by a technical expert. A potential problem with a leaking valve was detected which will be replaced. A special liquid was added to the diesel to improve its functioning at low temperature.
