How Can We Help?
Emergency Power Response You Can Rely on
The average power cut in the UK lasts about 2 and ½ hours. A person at home may find it an inconvenience, but if you’re working in critical conditions it can be a life or death situation, and can have lasting financial consequences.
Whether you’re a hospital affected by an outage that puts patients at risk, a storage centre relying on refrigeration risking a huge loss in stock and supply, a data centre gone down and facing loss of customer data during this outage, or any other situation, you don’t just want a fast, expert-driven response: You need one.
Not only do we pride ourselves on 24/7 service, our work centres around keeping the power on. With generator hire, installation services and remote monitoring, as well as a plethora of clients across many different industries, our emergency power supply service is built for the critical power industry, ensuring uninterrupted power during outages or crises.
What is an Emergency Generator?
An emergency power generator makes up part of a backup power system, designed to activate during a power outage to ensure continuous electricity for essential operations. These diesel-powered units can supply anything from a small 30 kVA system to 2500 kVA and above, supporting industries like healthcare, data centres, and infrastructure.
Pleavin Power offers expert installation, servicing, and a comprehensive range of generators and emergency UPS options for hire or purchase to meet varied needs, ensuring seamless power continuity when it matters most.
What is Reactive Response?
Reactive response means being ready to act immediately in the face of power emergencies. We pride ourselves on this, with 24/7 services ensuring rapid deployment of expert engineers and fully equipped vehicles, stocked with essential tools and parts to get power back on fast.
This is supported by in-house services like generator remote monitoring, keeping our eyes on critical infrastructure. Our generators are monitored by our 24/7 control room, keeping track of what’s working and what’s faulty. If an issue is found, we send out an engineer to repair the unit and get everything back online before many clients realise a problem has happened at all.
swift repairs to deploying emergency backup power, our reactive response guarantees critical systems are back online without delay, minimising downtime for businesses and essential facilities

If a repair isn’t possible, our reactive response team will take the next steps. We can supply, install, and commission power systems from 10KVA to multi-MVA during critical power emergencies.
Critical power needs are escalated to our incident commanders, who coordinate with our 24/7 support centre to keep you updated on actions, resources, and progress. They oversee the fault, manage the response, and ensure power is restored or emergency equipment is fully operational.
Not only can we help get power back to your site, but we can also provide dedicated disaster recovery and contingency plans for after the fact. Our team will design and implement control measures for emergencies such as transformer failure or a cable fault, and will review:
- Connection Points
- Isolation Points
- Equipment Locations
- Operating Environment
- Load Profiles

- Previous Service History
- Manufacturer Recommendations
All of this stems from our drive to deliver effective solutions to our customers, to help make recovery faster in the future, and work to prevent these situations happening again.
