Generators Sized, Tested and Ready to Run

Australia's Generator Specialists Since 1949

For over 75 years, Macfarlane Generators has helped Australian industries, businesses and households get the right power solution and keep it running. From our start in Melbourne in 1949 to four branches now across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth, we are 100% Australian owned and operated.

What sets us apart is the expertise around the sale. We are old school: we size every generator correctly for the job, then put it through full pre-delivery, fuelled, oiled, run and load-tested, so it arrives plug and play. Most competitors just send the box. We back ours with genuine spare parts, in-house servicing at every branch, and a help desk run by people who know the product.

Add competitive pricing across our portable and industrial range, with no corners cut on support, and you get quality equipment from a name that has powered everything from hospitals and airports to film sets and the Sydney Harbour Tunnel.

How to find what power generator you need

The Macfarlane Generators Power Calculator helps you estimate the generator size required for your application by calculating power demand, motor starting loads, and electrical conversions such as kVA, kW, amps, and horsepower. Designed for homeowners, tradies, and industrial operators, it provides practical tools and power consumption guides to help you select the right generator with confidence. Whether you're planning backup power, construction site equipment, or large-scale operations, the calculator simplifies generator sizing and power planning.
