Installation / Initial Set-Up

 

The generator cannot power your entire home -- you must work with the

 

installing electrician to determine which devices/appliances you wish to

 

power during an outage. The electrician can help you determine which

 

circuits and devices can be powered simultaneously without overloading the

 

generator.

 

 

 

 

 

(See the previous section of this manual entitled “Power Load Planning &

 

Management” for more information on load application and selection.)

Using as a

When using the generator as a portable power source, you can plug

Portable Power

electric devices and appliances directly into the generator’s electrical

outlets.

 

 

 

 

 

There are four different kinds of electrical outlets on the generator:

 

1. One 120/240 Volt, 50 Amp straight-blade receptacle (NEMA 14-50R

 

receptacle compatible with NEMA 14-50P mating plug)

 

2. One 120/240 Volt, 30 Amp locking receptacle (NEMA L14-30R

 

locking receptacle compatible with L14-30P mating plug)

 

3. One 120 Volt, 30 Amp locking receptacle (NEMA L5-30R receptacle

 

compatible with NEMA L5-30P mating plug)

 

 

4. Two 120 Volt, 20 Amp duplex straight-blade receptacles (NEMA 5-

 

20R duplex receptacles compatible with NEMA 5-20P or 5-15P

 

mating plugs).
