It gives you control over power and deployment. With dimensions of 6.06 x 2.44 x 2.60 meters, an empty weight of 12,350 kg, and 64 dB(A), this is a powerful yet manageable machine. - ### High energy security through dual configuration The twinset consists of two independently deployable generators in one container, ensuring continued power supply even during maintenance or failure of one unit. - ### Flexible deployment The two generators can be operated individually or simultaneously, depending on the required load. - ### Efficient fuel consumption The integrated switchgear automatically synchronises the generators and adjusts output to demand, reducing fuel consumption. ## Technical specifications Power 800 kVA **This Twinset has a power of 2x 400 kVA.** The power of a generator is expressed in kVA. To calculate the required power, you can use the following guidelines: a. 100 kVA = 80 kW = 144 amp (cos-phi 0.8). b. For lighting/heating, calculate 20% more (cos-phi 1). c. An electric motor can (depending on type and application) demand up to 8x its power when starting under load. A generator can, very briefly, deliver 2x its nominal power. Connection(s) (output) 2x set Powerlock, connection terminals A generator can be connected in various ways. Generators up to 100 kVA are equipped with a wall socket and voltage rail. From 100 kVA, only the voltage rail can be used. The wall socket goes up to 125 A. Powerlock is also possible. A separate connection per earth. Dimensions (L x W x H) 6.06 x 2.44 x 2.6 m Dimensions stand for length x width x height. Weight (empty) 12,350 kg This is the weight without fuel. Weight (full) 13,230 kg This is the weight with fuel. Fuel tank capacity 1,000 l **This Twinset has a tank capacity of 2x 500 l.** The tank capacity indicates how much fuel the internal or external tank of a generator has available. The diesel oil consumption is approximately 20 liters per 100 kVA consumed, meaning a 50 kVA generator that is half-loaded uses about 5 liters per hour. Fuel consumption 160 L/h at 100% output Calculated at 100% load of both engines in twin setup. Fuel HVO, GTL, Biodiesel Generators run on fuel. Various types of fuels are possible, such as standard diesel, GTL synthetic diesel, HVO100 biofuel, biogas, and methanol. Noise level (at 7 m) 64 dB(A) The sound level is expressed in dB(A), which is a weighted scale corresponding to human hearing. The level is measured at a distance of 7 meters. ## Frequently rented together [![Distribution box 6x 32 A, 6x 230 V - front](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvRGlzdHJpYnV0aW9uLWJveC02eC0zMi1BLTZ4LTIzMC1WLWZyb250LmpwZyIsImVkaXRzIjp7ImpwZWciOnsicXVhbGl0eSI6ODIsInByb2dyZXNzaXZlIjp0cnVlLCJ0cmVsbGlzUXVhbnRpc2F0aW9uIjp0cnVlLCJvdmVyc2hvb3REZXJpbmdpbmciOnRydWUsIm9wdGltaXplU2NhbnMiOnRydWV9LCJyZXNpemUiOnsid2lkdGgiOjM3NSwiaGVpZ2h0IjoyNTAsImZpdCI6ImNvdmVyIn19fQ==) Distribution boxes](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/distribution/distribution-boxes/ "Distribution boxes")[![Assortment of Bredenoord cables](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvQXNzb3J0bWVudC1vZi1CcmVkZW5vb3JkLWNhYmxlcy5qcGciLCJlZGl0cyI6eyJqcGVnIjp7InF1YWxpdHkiOjgyLCJwcm9ncmVzc2l2ZSI6dHJ1ZSwidHJlbGxpc1F1YW50aXNhdGlvbiI6dHJ1ZSwib3ZlcnNob290RGVyaW5naW5nIjp0cnVlLCJvcHRpbWl6ZVNjYW5zIjp0cnVlfSwicmVzaXplIjp7IndpZHRoIjozNzUsImhlaWdodCI6MjUwLCJmaXQiOiJjb3ZlciJ9fX0=) Cables](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/distribution/cables/ "Cables") ## The rental process 01 ### Enquiry You can submit an enquiry via the form or by phone, outlining your power requirements. 02 ### Advice & quotation Our experts provide tailored advice that suits your situation, including a quotation. 03 ### Delivery Using our own transport fleet, we deliver the power solution to your location. 04 ### Monitoring & 24/7 service The power solution is monitored from our Fleet Operation Center.

[ Explore sales options ](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/sales/) ## Together, the right choice When it comes to temporary power, it’s not just about capacity but also about a setup that works in practice. That’s why our Technical Advisors work with you to assess the location, tasks, and usage of the installation. Based on that, you receive tailored advice and a quote that fits your situation. Once you agree, our planners initiate the rental order. Then, our own drivers deliver the machine to the agreed location and connect it to the first distribution box. Even during the rental, support is close by. Our service department is available 24/7 if anything arises. At the end of the rental period, we coordinate the return of the setup together. ## Twinset for continuous power The Twinset 2 x 400 kVA is built for projects where high power demand meets the need for reliability. This machine excels on larger construction sites, industrial installations, and event grounds where the load can vary. The dimensions of 6.06 x 2.44 x 2.60 meters make the setup easy to transport and place. With a sound level of 64 dB(A) at 7 meters, the environment remains more manageable. The fuel supply of 2 x 500 l supports stable deployment. Are you looking for a generator for heavier applications? This generator offers a solid solution. ## Sustainable power setup This installation is also well-suited for integration into a more sustainable energy supply. The generator can run on GTL synthetic diesel or HVO100 biofuel, allowing you to more easily focus on lower emissions. Bredenoord also offers generators in Stage V versions. A Stage V version drastically reduces nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions. Additionally, this machine is excellent to combine with a Battery Box in a hybrid solution. The battery delivers a large portion of the power, while the generator only steps in when demand increases or extra capacity is needed. A hybrid solution combined with a Battery Box ensures the engine runs only when necessary and as efficiently as possible. This reduces emissions and operates significantly quieter. ![Twinset 2x 500 kVA generator](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvQnJlZGVub29yZC1Ud2luc2V0LTJ4NTAwLWtWQS1nZW5lcmF0b3IuanBnIiwiZWRpdHMiOnsianBlZyI6eyJxdWFsaXR5IjoxMDAsInByb2dyZXNzaXZlIjpmYWxzZSwidHJlbGxpc1F1YW50aXNhdGlvbiI6dHJ1ZSwib3ZlcnNob290RGVyaW5naW5nIjp0cnVlLCJvcHRpbWl6ZVNjYW5zIjp0cnVlfSwicmVzaXplIjp7IndpZHRoIjo5NiwiaGVpZ2h0Ijo2NCwiZml0IjoiaW5zaWRlIn19fQ==)Twinset 2 x 400 kVA [ Request a quote ](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/generators/twinset-2-x-400-kva/quote/) Get in touch Need temporary power fast?
