ENG GENERATOR

Check and make sure the Voltage Reg manufacture is the same as the Generator; there are two different types with different operating voltages. The newer system can tell what GEN/VR is installed the older cannot and may cause failure. 

You may have a "Bus" failure if it is the same Gen each time.

A second Gen failure on the same wing when the load is switched would be a good indication of a Bus failure  .

What model?  

Sounds like you are having multiple engine generators failing? In flight, on ground, same engine?  Give some details please.

Just want to clarify your issue before I throw out ideas

Dear Mr. Munir,

First concern is oil splashing on the generator! from what source?  This is not normal and must be fixed before running engine or installing replacement generator.   Potential fire hazzard.  We represent the manufacturer of the generator you mention.  We can perform a teardown and report exact cause of failures.  Also we can offer alternative gen in NEW condition with 3 yr warranty, as a more readily available modernization. Lastly,  we have RRC with PAF.  Regards.
