1240 V 50 A AC Receptacle RC1

RC1 supplies 60 Hz single-phase power at weld/power speed. Maxi- mum output is 8 kVA/kW.

2120 V 20 A AC Duplex Receptacle RC2

3120 V 20 A AC Duplex Receptacle RC3

RC2 and RC3 supply 60 Hz single- phase power at weld/power speed. Maximum output from RC2 or RC3 is 2.4 kVA/kW.

4 Circuit Breakers CB1 and CB2

CB1 and CB2 protect RC1 from over- load. If CB1 or CB2 opens, RC1 and one of the 120 volt receptacles does not work. 120 volts may still be pres- ent at RC1.

5Circuit Breaker CB3

6Circuit Breaker CB4

CB3 protects RC2 and CB4 protects RC3 from overload. If a circuit break- er opens, the receptacle does not work.

.Press button to reset circuit breaker. If breaker continues to

open, contact Factory Authorized Service Agent.

Combined output of all receptacles limited to 8 kVA/kW rating of the gen- erator.

EXAMPLE: If 20 A is drawn from each 120 V duplex receptacle, only 13 A is available at the 240 V receptacle:

2 x (120 V x 20 A) + (240 V x 13 A) = 8 kVA/kW
