Shop commercial generators for reliable portable power on worksites, farms, workshops, businesses and professional applications. City Honda Manawatu offers a range of generators suited to demanding environments where dependable power is essential.
Whether you need portable power for tools and equipment, temporary power on a worksite, backup power for business operations or a generator for regular use around the farm, explore our range of commercial and professional generator options.
Generators for Worksites & Trades
A reliable generator can provide power where mains electricity isn't available, making it an essential piece of equipment for many trades and worksites. Commercial generators can be used to power compatible tools, lighting, chargers and other equipment while working remotely.
Generator output and equipment requirements vary, so it's important to choose a generator with sufficient capacity for the equipment you intend to operate.
Generators for Farms & Rural Properties
Portable generators are particularly useful around farms and rural properties where access to mains power may be limited. They can provide convenient power for equipment, maintenance work and other jobs around the property, as well as providing an additional power option when required.
Commercial & Business Backup Power
Selected generators can also provide backup power for businesses and commercial operations during outages. The right generator will depend on what equipment needs to remain operational and the combined starting and running wattage of those appliances or systems.
If backup power is your main priority, our team can help you determine the generator capacity required for your intended application.
Choosing the Right Commercial Generator
When comparing commercial generators, consider how much power you require, what equipment you'll be running, how frequently the generator will be used and whether portability, runtime, noise or power quality are important for your application.
Some equipment can also require significantly more power during startup than during normal operation, so generator selection should be based on both starting and running power requirements.
Not Sure What Size Generator You Need?
Choosing the correct generator size is important for both performance and reliability. Use our Generator Calculator as a starting point or talk to the City Honda Manawatu team about the equipment you need to power.

Commercial Generator FAQs
What is a commercial generator?
A commercial generator is a generator suited to professional applications such as worksites, trades, farms, workshops and businesses. The appropriate generator depends on the required output, operating environment and how frequently it will be used.
What size generator do I need for a worksite?
This depends on the tools and equipment you intend to operate. Add together their running power requirements and consider the additional starting power required by equipment with electric motors. Choosing some additional capacity can also help avoid operating the generator continuously at its maximum output. Use our Generator Calculator for more help.
Can I use a generator to power tools?
Yes, provided the generator has sufficient output for the tool or equipment being used. Always check both the running and starting power requirements before connecting equipment to a generator.
Are generators useful on farms?
Yes. Portable generators can provide power in areas where mains electricity isn't readily available and can be useful for maintenance, equipment and other jobs around farms and rural properties.
Can a commercial generator provide backup power for a business?
Selected generators may be suitable for business backup power. The appropriate generator depends on the equipment that needs to remain operational and its combined power requirements. Electrical connection to a building should always be completed using an appropriate setup and qualified electrical advice where required.
What's the difference between a commercial and camping generator?
Camping generators generally prioritise portability, quiet operation and power for smaller appliances and electronics. Commercial generators are typically selected around higher or more demanding power requirements for tools, equipment, farms, worksites and professional applications.
How do I choose the right commercial generator?
Consider the equipment you need to power, its starting and running wattage, expected generator runtime, portability requirements and how frequently the generator will be used. If you're unsure, use our generator calcular or talk to the City Honda Manawatu team before choosing a model.
