I've commissioned hydro electric turbines and generators manufactured in China. If it was a Chinese brand the big bits were useable but a lot of detailed components, systems, and instrumentation was assembled and tested once and then put in the garbage. European brands also get some of their big bits manufactured in China but engineering is performed in Europe and the auxiliary systems and instrumentation are also European brands and not counterfeit fakes. Also the European brands will do quality control and offer a performance guarantee and generally will send competent engineers to make sure their equipment is assembled and installed and commissioned properly. a case of you get what you pay for.
