Abstract
A system and assembly for modifying a diesel powered electric generator preferably of the reciprocating engine type to the extent that the generator is capable of running on either 100% diesel fuel or in a 'bi-fuel' mode which is defined as a mixture of methane based gas and diesel fuel. The system and associated assembly is specifically designed to provide for the automatic or manual switching between the full diesel mode and the gas-diesel fuel or bi-fuel mode for continuous generator operation without interruption in generator output and at substantially equivalent or comparable efficiency levels. A gas control sub-assembly is included for controlling the amount of gas supplied to the driving engine of the generator while operating in the bi-fuel mode, a diesel control sub-assembly is included and designed for controlling the amount of diesel fuel supply to the driving engine while operating in the bi-fuel mode, and an electronic control an monitoring sub-assembly is included and designed for controlling various components of the overall system and is further structured to monitor and display certain data associated with operation and continuous current output within pre-determined, acceptable parameters.
