Generator Services

Generator Services

Contact Group operates a dedicated division specialising in the service, maintenance, and diagnostics of generator systems across all industries throughout Tasmania.

We support both backup and prime power systems, with capabilities extending across diesel, gas, marine generators, and gas turbine co-generation units. Our strategically located branches in Hobart, Launceston, and Burnie enable us to deliver responsive, state-wide coverage.

Our team includes dual-trade technicians qualified in both electrical and diesel mechanical disciplines, enabling efficient 24/7 breakdown response — often with only a single technician required on-site. All associated electrical works, including switchboards, control systems, and automatic transfer switches, are delivered in-house without the need for subcontractors.

Each client receives a comprehensive service file tailored to their system, complete with operator manuals, service records, and fault-finding documentation. All reports, including photographic evidence and test results, are delivered via our cloud-based reporting platform.

  • Scheduled Preventative Maintenance
    1, 3, 6, or 12-month servicing intervals tailored to asset criticality
  • Fault Diagnosis & Repairs
    On-site statewide coverage, including urgent response services
  • New Installations
    Supply, installation, and commissioning of standby and prime generators
  • Power System Types
    Expertise across diesel, gas, marine, and co-generation systems
