Generator Hire & Sales in Cobar, NSW

Cobar sits around 295km west of our Dubbo workshop on the Barrier Highway, at the centre of one of Australia’s richest mining fields - the CSA copper mine, Peak gold mine and surrounding lead and zinc operations. JDC Thomson supplies and services generators for Cobar’s mine sites, contractors and local businesses that need workcover-compliant, reliable backup power.

We’re an authorised dealer for Cummins, Caterpillar, Kubota, Powerlink, Pramac and Genelite, with units from 5kVA portable sets through to 1200kVA systems available for hire or purchase, all backed by genuine manufacturer support.

Whether you need short-term hire for a mine site or contract job, a standby set for a Cobar business, or want to buy outright, we deliver, install and service generators throughout Cobar and the surrounding mining district. Call (02) 6884 5210 to talk through what you need.

Maintenance plan

Critical to the reliability of your generator investment is a comprehensive maintenance plan.

We can design a plan to suit your specific application or review one of your own design.

Our fully-equipped workshop and mobile service vehicles provide 24/7, worry-free, one-stop maintenance of your new and existing generator installations — regardless of brand, size or application.

Load testing and diagnostics

JDC Thomson has Mobile Load Banks ranging from 10 to 600kw for load testing of generating sets.

With the aid of specialised test equipment and recorders, our qualified team can diagnose your site conditions and problems and provide professional reports that detail the findings. This includes suggested corrective actions if required.

Generator hire and installation

We also offer an extensive modern range of hire generators designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern industry, including mining and workcover regulation compliant units.

All units are fitted with RCD (Residual Current Device) circuit breaker protection to power outlet where applicable.

Customers can collect units from our Dubbo workshop, or we can deliver and install throughout Cobar and the surrounding mine sites. Our service vehicles carry out on-site maintenance and load testing at Cobar operations, minimising downtime and freight back to Dubbo for routine servicing.

Our larger units can be connected by any suitably qualified electrician or we can provide a connection service on site if required.
