Husqvarna 420 GN manual Cord Sets and Receptacles, Volt AC, 15 Amp, Duplex Receptacle

Cord Sets and Receptacles

Use only high quality, well-insulated, grounded extension cords with the generator’s 120 Volt duplex receptacle. Inspect extension cords before each use.

Check the ratings of all extension cords before you use them. Extension cord sets used should be rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 15 Amps or greater for most electrical devices. Some devices, however, may not require this type of extension cord. Check the operator’s manuals of those devices for the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Keep extension cords as short as possible to minimize voltage drop.

WARNING

Overloaded electrical cords can overheat, arc, and burn resulting in death, bodily injury, and/or property damage.

•ONLY use cords rated for your loads.

•Follow all safeties on electrical cords.

120 Volt AC, 15 Amp, Duplex Receptacle

The duplex receptacle is protected against overload by a push-to-reset circuit breaker.

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 cord sets that are rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 15 Amps (or greater).

NOTICE

Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater than generator output capacity.

•NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage than generator or receptacle can supply.

•DO NOT overload the generator. See Don’t Overload Generator.

12 Volt DC Accessory Jack

These receptacles allows you to recharge a 12 Volt automotive or utility style storage battery with the battery charge cable provided. Camping-style air pumps, lanterns, fans, or other 12 Volt devices having a cigarette lighter-type plug may also be powered by these outlets.

These receptacles can not recharge 6 Volt batteries and can not be used to crank an engine having a discharged battery. See Charging a Battery before attempting to recharge a battery.
