Discuss How much electricity will Vauxhall Combo Van engine generate ? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

You will have to look at the alternator rating plate to tell you. But I doubt it's anywhere near 4Kw.
 
For that kind of load you would be better of with a generator .
What kind of coffee machine is it ? Is this a commercial venture.
 
As a rough guide 4000/12v is 333Amps so no chance with a van generator.S
We could assume the voltage is around 14.5 volts so that brings it down to a more reasonable 275 amps... :D
 
Hi,what on earth is that coffee machine? ...you won't get 4Kw on a standard pitch hook-up.

Tell me,you haven't ram-raided Cafe Nero,in that Combo... ;)
 
Did a job in Rotherham a couple of years back. We used to stop, on the way, at a coffee van local to the job. It was really small and he produced various drinks from his 'coffee machine on wheels'....really professional. I just presumed he had a jenny on board but never asked. Good drinks though.
