What were these used for? Would they have been part of the on board equipment for 15cwt wireless trucks?

No, used for charging banks of batteries at Company/Squadron Level. The Generators were manufactured by a number of manufactures including, JAP, Petter, Villars, Onan etc.
After the Chorehorses they would have ben the most common class of Generator in use. |

Post-WW2 there were 3 and 4-ton lorries fitted out as dedicated battery charging vehicles, with a large (110 or 230 volt AC) generator and banks of individual metal rectifier chargers (plus ventilation fans to prevent a buildup of explosive gases). Chris. |
