PowerAll Ltd was formed in 1979 when it began as a specialist manufacturer of electronic control solutions for a wide range of applications, developing over the years into a modern, innovative business achieving circa £1m sales p.a. This project is based on the need for alternative sources of power in vehicles fitted with a wide range of applications - for example, mobile canteens, mobile repairs, emergency vehicles. Currently, the alternative electrical source is provided by a generator then linked to specific equipment, i.e. compressors, welding and power tools. To address this PowerAll have been testing the technical feasibility of installing a second alternator into the host vehicle with some success. However, due to serious space limitations in engine bays due to design requirements and additional equipment i.e. air conditioning, the number of vehicles suitable for such a solution is seriously limited. The answer is to design and develop a generic 'Swap-Out' Alternator that can replace the originally installed alternator. The Swap-Out will be capable of providing multiple electrical power outputs, dependent upon the customer requirements and cover the majority of major manufacturers commercial vehicle fleets. Such a development will be highly innovative and when completed will have global market potential, significantly impacting on PowerAll's performance with the consequential benefits to the national economy.

PowerAll Ltd成立于1979年，最初是一家为各种应用提供电子控制解决方案的专业制造商，多年来发展成为一家现代化的创新企业，年销售额约为100万英镑。该项目的依据是，需要为各种用途的车辆提供替代能源-例如，移动的食堂、移动的维修、应急车辆。目前，替代电源由发电机提供，然后连接到特定设备，即压缩机，焊接和电动工具。为了解决这个问题，PowerAll一直在测试将第二台交流发电机安装到主机车辆中的技术可行性，并取得了一些成功。然而，由于设计要求和附加设备（即空调）导致的发动机舱中的严重空间限制，适合于这种解决方案的车辆的数量受到严重限制。答案是设计和开发一个通用的“换出”交流发电机，可以取代原来安装的交流发电机。根据客户要求，Swap-Out将能够提供多种电力输出，并覆盖大多数主要制造商的商用车车队。这样的发展将是高度创新的，完成后将具有全球市场潜力，对PowerAll的业绩产生重大影响，从而为国民经济带来好处。
