A monthly inspection and maintenance checklist for facility maintenance staff and generator technicians responsible for standby or prime power generators. Covers visual inspection, fluid levels, battery condition, belt and hose checks, fuel system integrity, control panel indicators, load testing, and automatic transfer switch verification — the routine maintenance that ensures the generator starts when the power fails.

A generator that won't start during a power outage is worse than no generator — because someone assumed it would work. Monthly inspections and regular load testing catch fuel degradation, dead batteries, failed heaters, and control faults before they matter. This checklist is the documented proof that the generator is maintained and ready.
