Abstract
In this paper operation data were collected to evaluate petrol (PMS) fuel when used as primary source of energy to generate electricity. The analysis highlight cost effectiveness and power quality of this means of generating electricity. For the exercise, a 2 KVA electric power generator was loaded from 800W to 1200W at 100W increment and one hour duration respectively for each load. The Data collected during generator operation include the load current, supplied voltage, power frequency, power factor and power consumed at five minutes interval for each load value. The generated Data were analyzed using mathematical and graphical approach to determine the generated power quality and unit cost of generation. The results, compared with the grid, show that the grid is far more economical and have better power quality.
