If there are 3 electricians for each generator, then for 50 generators, there will be a total of 3 * 50 = <<3*50=150>>150 electricians needed.
If there are 4 inspectors for every 60 electricians, then for 150 electricians, there will be a total of 4 * (150/60) = <<4*(150/60)=10>>10 inspectors needed.
