Unfortunately, from page 1 to page 2, useless theory.

OP should get a good generator. If you are using a generator other than the "I pass my neighbor", it's voltage doesn't fluctuates either on load or no load. No problem with using stab with your refrigerator
Stabilizer draws more power from the generator, so it depends on the kind of generator he's using.

We on our generator to freeze the items kept in the freezer, we connected stabilizer with the freezer, this was our first time of connecting stab with freezer.

So the hell mistake I made was removing my phone from the original charger and charging it with an infinix fast charger, after plugging the phone , the generator level went high and the fast charger got burnt the original charger, my sister laptop charger got burnt , bulbs got burnt.

We were lucky not to on our televisions and other valuables. We off the gen and on it again without the freezer on and the sound and motion went back to normal.

So what caused the change in level of the generator and what led to the damages of laptop charger, bulbs and chargers??


What's your AVR(Stab) power rating?
What's the Gen power rating (2500)?

Check and tell me

That's why I've stuck to solar every since, has alot of device protection features in it including thunder protection and 24hrs electricity, it's been 3 weeks now and my light never off talkless of charger burning lol and its it's super quiet too

And you forgot to mention the cost sad one solar battery now cost more than a our regular generator

You are not supposed to connect your freezer to a stabilizer while your Gen is on. That was the mistake u made. Next time, plug the freezer directly and not through a stabilizer.

correct answer. never use your gen and stabilizer simultaneously

Stabilizer consume more power, let's just say ur generator is powerful enough for the stabilizer u are using, but on a serious note, u are stressing ur generator.

a stabilizer would damage a smaller not so powerful generator.
based on what electrical principle exactly?? all these people up there saying, 'don't use stabilizers with generator', actually sound ridiculous! your stabilizer is simply an electrical device that steps up or steps down electrical voltage so as to protect your appliances from damage. stabilizers themselves DON'T consume electricity. if your generator is good and your stabilizer is good absolutely NOTHING will happen if used together.

it's not advisable to plug Fridge with Stabilizer on Generator it damage the compressor
it's to plug to generator direct

I'm surprised too.
I used gen on stabilizer and never had problem once. My engineer that usually come to service the gen has never deemed it fit to use the gen direct too. Gen never had any single problem till the day he dismatled and packed them for me.
Get good gen. Really good gen.

Ok . how will i know if a charger is original?
Download ampere plug in your charger and open the app. If it reads above 1000ma it is obviously an original charger...

I have use generator for 15years, that incident was caused by the charger, they are some fake charger you plug to an extension there will be a bridge of current between the extension and the charger, immediately you plug the charger the Gen will be jerking like a girl that wants to cum, just troway that charger, another that causes that is when NEPA and gen collide. But nothing will happen to your Gen.

Oil dey ur head
Let me explain something here
We use stabilizers for Nepa because most of there lights are either below or above 220mw and most electronics we have works well when on 220mw
Our generators are set already on 220mw, so no need to stabilise the current because its already stabilized by the gen


220volts or 220 megawatts?

So your generator can supply 220 mega watts. Thats 220 million watts .

Better edit your error. I know say na 220volts you wan write

Well, it does. But 100 watts max for a 1kva stabilizer, which I use. Negligible. Compared to the stress of having to plug and unplug everytime.

I have a digital stabilizer and I actually get 210volts on my generator which it boosts to 230v. I intentionally reduced the output of the generator a little to save fuel.

Why connect a stabilizer to your generator? That's technically unethical? Do you compare the size of your generator to the stabilizer? Your freezer wattage rating? other appliances? You have a good chance of burning your generator coils, jack off the stabilizer from that generator supply chain.
Why generator, when solar system is now the trend, that is where comfort art?

Wanted to say this..... But u said it all already
And also when next you are going for gen.... Buy the one with AVR not capacitor

Circuit breaker should av come to your rescue

The gen backfired. Due to voltage surge triggered from the stabilizer.
It is not it, I had similar experience before nothing like stabilizer, so what is the cause?

Everybody keep saying never marry generator and stabilizer, nobody can say why.

There's actually nothing wrong with that, google please.

I use 5000w wall mounted stabilizer at the mains.
As in, everything in the house, from bulb, chargers and freezer are connected to the stabilizer when NEPA or generator is on.

The only cons is on the generator, and its not much. just a little minus in efficiency. I calculated the power demand in the house and its far below the power rated on the generator.


It's Science, not myth.

Before you accused any charger, have you ask him to know if he is using those chargers for the first or he has been using them before?
If he has been using them before and they hadn't burnt nor destroyed other items then why now?
What about the stabilizer, what is the output voltage, what is the make of the stabilizer etc, these are various questions to ask, don't just accused any particular charger of being responsible until you get, most important, the output voltage of the stabilizer

Using a Stabilizer with a generator is unnecessary... Because lot of generator output generates clean voltage unlike our NEPA light that keeps fluctuating

And also Stabilizer should not be higher than the Generator in terms of its Kva. example Don't use a 5,000watt Stabilizer on a 2kva Gen. You will ruin the Generator

Finally, Be sure to check also that the stabilizer you are using is not too small in capacity compared to the load apply on it. Example Using an 800watt stabilizer with a 4kva Gen to power a 2hp AC. you will also joyfully damage the stabilizer. and maybe if you're not lucky ruin your appliance(s).

No need to go back and fourt, you said it already. The stabilizer is the problem.
