    The QAS 330 John Deere AC is an AC generator, built for continuous running at sites where no electricity is available or as stand-by in cases of interruption of the mains. The generators can run in 2 different modes: 60 Hz, 480 V - 3 phase and 60 Hz, 208 V - 3 phase lower voltage. The QAS 330 John Deere AC generator is driven by a water-cooled diesel engine, manufactured by John Deere.
