DIESEL GENERATOR FUEL CHART

This chart provides an estimated guide to fuel consumption for diesel generators based on generator size and operational load. It is designed to help you approximate fuel usage during generator operation. Actual consumption may vary depending on factors such as load fluctuations, generator efficiency, and operating conditions. Use this chart as a reference for planning fuel needs, but note that exact values may differ for individual generators.
