A generator assembly for mounting to a container. The generator assembly includes a container frame having a top casting and a receiver bracket. The generator assembly includes a frame, a generator coupled to the frame, a clamp mounting system including a first clamp coupled to the frame and configured to be coupled to the top casting, and a pin mounting system including a first bracket coupled to the frame and configured to be coupled to the receiver bracket. The generator assembly is such that one of the first clamp and the first bracket is repositionable on the frame to avoid interference with the container when the other of the first clamp and the first bracket is coupled to the corresponding one of the top casting and the receiver bracket.

Mounting system for a generator assembly

A generator set for a transport refrigeration unit that is operable at a first frequency and a second frequency. The generator set includes a generator and a prime mover coupled to the generator. The prime mover selectively drives the generator in least at a first non-zero speed and a second non-zero speed. A sensor is in electrical communication with the generator to sense a load of the generator and to deliver a signal indicative of the generator load. A controller is in electrical communication with the generator, the prime mover, and the sensor, and receives the signal indicative of the generator load. The controller selectively operates the generator at one of the first speed and the second speed in response to the signal indicative of the generator load.
