%X Gender concerns and experiences, as well as those of policymakers and programme implementers, should be considered when formulating policies and programmes in all areas of public life, politics, business, and society. This ensures that women and men benefit from policies and programmes in the same way, while preventing inequalities from being perpetuated. This should also be integrated in the designing of machines used in homes too. This research seeks to investigate the impact of gender centered approach on the conventional generator used by artisans in Nigeria. To guide the study, two (2) research questions, comprising three (3) research items each were raised. This paper specifically considers responses that focus on gender perspectives and operational and control requirement limitations of the use of the conventional generator, particularly in Nigeria. The result reveals significant differences exist in the three (3) items in research question one (1) for the male and female responses in the use of the product, while there are significant differences in two (2) out of the three (3) items in research question two (2) of the male and female responses in the use of the product. The results justify the re-design of the generator in terms of the impact of gender centred approach based on the research questions raised in the study.
