DG Set Inspection App runs structured DG set inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each DG set, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see DG set compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
DG Set Inspection App runs a structured diesel generator inspection covering fuel level, day tank, and bunding, coolant, oil, and belt condition, battery and charger status, auto-start and load-transfer test, and exhaust, silencer, and louvres, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, diesel generator findings live on paper and in chat. A diesel generator fault such as failed auto-start slips through. An audit then means rebuilding diesel generator evidence from folders.
DG Set Inspection App keeps one record per diesel generator and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each diesel generator finding is tracked to verified closure. Facilities and standby power teams see diesel generator completion and overdue actions across the facilities management portfolio. Every diesel generator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a DG Set Inspection App?
A comprehensive diesel generator inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Inspect DG set with structured checks, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking. Your inspection should include sections for fuel level, day tank, and bunding; coolant, oil, and belt condition; and battery and charger status, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use DG Set Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps DG set inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned DG set template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, DG set, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the DG set.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially failed auto-start, low fuel, coolant, or oil, flat or unhealthy batteries, fuel or oil leaks and failed bund.
For every failed DG set item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the DG set form. The DG set report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does a Diesel Generator Inspection Cover?
A diesel generator inspection covers fuel level, day tank, and bunding, coolant, oil, and belt condition, battery and charger status, auto-start and load-transfer test, exhaust, silencer, and louvres, and control panel alarms and hours. Facilities and standby power teams capture a photo and a reading on each diesel generator point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the diesel generator round off. So every diesel generator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

What DG Set Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
DG Set work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems DG Set Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Licensed electrical contractor signs off the DG set fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the DG set is handed to licensed electrical contractor. A week later the DG set defect is marked closed. Whether the DG set work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Licensed electrical contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor DG set fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which DG set partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any DG set action is signed off
Licensed electrical contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened DG set actions linked back to the original finding
The DG set report is still being assembled by hand
Someone spends Friday afternoon collecting DG set photos, notes, and inspection records into a report. By the time leadership reads it, the DG set data is days old and the next problem is already live.
Problem
DG Set reports compiled by hand from photos and notes
Leadership reads DG set data that is already days old
Every DG set report looks slightly different
Solution
Branded DG set reports generate automatically per site and period
Scheduled DG set reports reach managers before the morning meeting
One consistent DG set report format across the estate
DG Set checks signed off on paper with no proof the DG set was actually checked
A DG set inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the DG set was actually checked, and whether failed auto-start, low fuel, coolant, or oil, flat or unhealthy batteries, fuel or oil leaks and failed bund were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the DG set passed.
Problem
DG Set checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm failed auto-start, low fuel, coolant, or oil, flat or unhealthy batteries, fuel or oil leaks and failed bund were actually inspected
DG Set findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital DG set form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every DG set check
DG Set findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
Frequently Asked Questions
What does DG Set Inspection App check on a diesel generator inspection?
DG Set Inspection App runs a structured diesel generator inspection covering fuel level, day tank, and bunding, coolant, oil, and belt condition, battery and charger status, auto-start and load-transfer test, and exhaust, silencer, and louvres. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so facilities and standby power teams work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which diesel generator defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the diesel generator failures that matter most: failed auto-start, low fuel, coolant, or oil, flat or unhealthy batteries, and fuel or oil leaks and failed bund. Left unchecked, a fault such as failed auto-start can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so facilities and standby power teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does DG Set Inspection App support for diesel generator work?
DG Set Inspection App keeps diesel generator checks aligned to DSEAR for fuel storage and manufacturer service schedule. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, facilities and standby power teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run diesel generator checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. DG Set Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete diesel generator checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So facilities and standby power teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a plant room or basement never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a diesel generator inspection was completed?
Every completed diesel generator inspection carries auto-start test record, fuel and bund photo, and control panel status photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, facilities and standby power teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
