Bldg 1 TF 12470/480 ____ kVA?
1000 Amp Service, full building on generator
60HP Fire Pump
1HP Jockey Pump

+ Bldg 2: TF 12470/480 ____ kVA?
400 Amp Service, full building on generator
No Fire Pump

Diesel Generator ____ KW to serve both buildings?
 
So I need the size of the both transformers for both buildings. And based off those sizes, a diesel generator that can carry those loads. (Including the two pumps)

I've never sized anything that large and I certainly would want to know what the actual loads would be. Your 1000 amp service may only be loaded to 400 amps. IDK.

Sometime in the selection, the bean counters will have input.
