Potters Heron Hotel, part of
Pebble Hotels, has contracted
with the shentongroup's
emergency generator service,
Powercall, to provide 'power
within the hour' as part of its
emergency and business
continuity planning. Overcoming
challenges associated
with a permanently installed
standby generator such as
insufficient space, capital
expenditure and ongoing
maintenance, Potters Heron
Hotel now has a cost
effective, guaranteed solution
to prolonged powercuts.
"We had a small generator
but that only provided
backup power to the
lighting," said Chris Bailey,
general manager of Potters
Heron Hotel. "A major
powercut focused our minds
on the need for additional
power support as it not only
caused disruption but also
resulted in a battle with the
insurance company regarding
loss of earnings and freezer
failure. A larger generator
would have required a large
financial outlay, maintenance
and recabling whereas the
Powercall solution is
extremely cost effective and
we have the peace of mind of
knowing our complete site
will be up and running again
within one hour if a powercut
occurs."
The Powercall service is
capable of supporting any
site that has either single or
3-phase mains electrical
supply up to 100 amps. For
larger buildings dedicated
circuits can be supported.
