INSTALLATION |
CAUTION
Certain Electrical devices cannot be powered by the POWERARC® 5500. See Table A.2.
TABLE A.2
ELECTRICAL DEVICE USE WITH THE POWERARC® 5500.
Type | Common Electrical Devices | Possible Concerns |
|
|
|
Resistive | Heaters, toasters, incandescent | NONE |
| light bulbs, electric range, hot |
|
| pan, skillet, coffee maker. |
|
|
|
|
Capacitive | TV sets, radios, microwaves, | Voltage spikes or high voltage |
| appliances with electrical control. | regulation can cause the capac- |
|
| itative elements to fail. Surge |
|
| protection, transient protection, |
|
| and additional loading is recom- |
|
| mended for 100% |
|
| operation. DO NOT RUN |
|
| THESE DEVICES WITHOUT |
|
| ADDITIONAL RESISTIVE TYPE |
|
| LOADS. |
|
|
|
Inductive | These devices require large | |
| drills, well pumps, grinders, small | current inrush for starting. (See |
| refrigerators, weed and hedge | Table B.3, GENERATOR POWER |
| trimmers | APPLICATIONS, in the OPERA- |
|
| TION section of this manual for |
|
| required starting wattages.) |
|
| Some synchronous motors may |
|
| be frequency sensitive to attain |
|
| maximum output torque, but |
|
| they SHOULD BE SAFE from |
|
| any frequency induced failures. |
|
|
|
Capacitive/Inductive | Computers, high resolution TV sets, | An inductive type line condition- |
| complicated electrical equipment. | er along with transient and |
|
| surge protection is required, and |
|
| liabilities still exist. DO NOT |
|
| USE THESE DEVICES WITH A |
|
| POWERARC® 5500. |
