Well, sorta... A fully on-line unit would put out power that's probably cleaner then what the power company delivers, but those arent typically used in most places. Usually the power is fed straight thru, with a MOV for surge protection in the way, but garbage in will be garbage out, and most lowend generators put out some really filthy power, with the exception of Honda's EU, but those are actually kinda expensive.

Well, the equipment should be hooked to UPSs so that they would plug UPSs into the generator power and not the equipment directly. The UPSs clean up the power, that's part of their job. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steven Peck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 11:39 AM Subject: Re: I've *GOT* to share!! I like it when we hook up electronics to gas generators. It helps get new equipment sooner than you might expect otherwise. When posible try and arrange for the oldest crap to get used first :) Several years ago during the California black outs/rolling power failures I had a few month contract job at a place. Every PC had an APC1000. Only half the servers were on UPSs None of the networking equipment was on a UPS. A few weeks worth of work had them all covered though.
