OPERATION

120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp, Locking Receptacle

Use a NEMA L14–30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a 4–wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or greater) (Figure 8).You can use the same 4–wire cord if you plan to run a 120 Volt load.

This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 7,200 watts of power (7.2 kW) at 30 Amps for 240 Volts or two independent 120 Volt loads at 30 Amps each.The outlet is protected by a double pole rocker switch circuit breaker.

IMPORTANT: This generator’s locking receptacle and the provided adapter cord set are not protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If used on an OSHA governed job site, appropriate GFCI protection must be utilized.

120 Volt AC, 15 Amp, GFCI Duplex Receptacles

Each duplex receptacle (Figure 9) is protected against overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.

NOTE: If the double pole circuit breaker is tripped, the duplex receptacles are disconnected.

Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 1,800 watts (1.8 kW) at 15 Amps of current. Use grounded cord sets that are rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 15 Amps (or greater). Inspect cord sets before each use.

Ground Fault Protection

The duplex receptacles are equipped with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection.This device meets applicable federal, state and local codes.The generator’s locking receptacle is not protected by a GFCI.

The GFCI protects against electrical shock that may be caused if your body becomes a path which electricity travels to reach the ground.This could happen if you touch a “Live” appliance or wire, or are touching plumbing or other materials that connect to the ground.

When protected by a GFCI, one may still feel a shock, but the GFCI should cut current off quickly enough so that a person in normal health should not suffer any serious electrical injury.

WARNING

Generator produces powerful voltage.

•The GFCI will not protect you against the following situations: -Line-to-line shocks;

-Current overloads or line-to-line short circuits.

•The circuit breakers at the control panel provide overcurrent protection.
