Use Case Example
A rental company leases a generator to a construction site. At the start of the contract, Operating Hours (Engine Hours) are recorded as 500. When the generator is returned after a week of heavy use, the meter shows 620 hours. The system uses this 120-hour difference to calculate if the usage exceeded the “8 hours per day” limit specified in the agreement and automatically triggers a “routine oil change” in the maintenance schedule.
