A standby generator in a Kilimani apartment block is only useful if it starts when needed. In many blocks, the set exists, but someone has to find the caretaker, walk to the generator room and flip a changeover switch while residents wait in dark corridors or stuck lifts.

Our generator installation in Kilimani removes the waiting. We connect your generator through an automatic transfer switch, so it starts and takes over the essential loads within moments of an outage, then hands back to KPLC when supply returns. For new installations, we size the generator to what really needs backup, such as lifts, pumps, lighting and security systems.

Nerpax handles placement, mounting, exhaust routing, fuel arrangements and the changeover panel, then tests a full outage cycle on site with the caretaker present. We also install generators for homes and offices in converted houses across the area.

Serving Kilimani

Kilimani is one of Nairobi's busiest apartment neighbourhoods, with tall residential blocks, serviced flats and short-stay units off Argwings Kodhek Road, Ngong Road and around Yaya Centre. Shared buildings like these rely on a working intercom, controlled entry and cameras covering gates, lifts and parking. Landlords and management companies also need tidy power distribution, backup for lifts and water pumps, and sub-metering that stops disputes. Smaller offices and salons run from converted houses here too. Nerpax Systems supplies, installs and delivers in Kilimani.

Generator Installation in Kilimani: FAQs

Can you add an automatic changeover to our existing generator?

Yes, if the generator has or can be fitted with an auto-start controller. We check the set during the survey, then install the ATS panel and wiring. After that, the generator starts on its own during outages and stops after supply returns.

What should an apartment block generator back up?

Usually lifts, water pumps, stair and corridor lighting, the gate, CCTV and intercoms. Backing up every apartment's full load needs a much larger generator and more fuel. We help management decide which loads are essential and size the system around those.
