Electric motors need higher starting current. They require up to 3 to 6-times their rated full-load wattage to start. The starting current needed may be too high. This can cause nuisance circuit breaker tripping. To help prevent this, start electric motors first. Connect additional items to generator after starting motors. If this continues to happen, reduce the total generator load.

NOTE: High ambient temperatures will cause nuisance tripping.
