PROTECTION
Some jobsites and local codes may require GFCI
protection for personnel before operation of your generator. If
your generator is not already equipped with a GFCI receptacle,
GFCI In-line cord sets may be purchased from your local
electrical supply store or home builder appliance store.
These cord sets are available in various plug and
amperage configurations. (Make sure your generator is
properly Grounded.)
NOTE: Total power drawn from all receptacles must not
exceed the nameplate ratings.
A. 120 V, 20 Ampere Duplex Receptacle
20 amps of current may be drawn from either of the duplex
receptacles. However, total power drawn must be kept within
nameplate ratings. These receptacles may be used along with
the twistlock receptacle provided the generator is not
overloaded.
B. 120/240 V, 30 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
Maximum full load current may be drawn from the 120/240
volt receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle used. Total
current must be limited to the nameplate rating. If the 120/240
volt receptacle is used along with the 120 volt receptacle, the
total load drawn must not exceed the nameplate ratings.
C. Circuit Protectors
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit protector. If
the generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs,
the circuit protector will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all
electrical loads and try to determine the cause of the problem
before attempting to use the generator again. If overloading
causes the circuit protector to trip, reduce the load. NOTE:
Continuous tripping of the circuit protector may cause
damage to generator or equipment. The circuit protector
may be reset by pushing the button of the protector.

CORD SET
Your generator is supplied with a 25 foot 12 GA SJTW
4-conductor 105ºC power cord set. This cord is equipped with
an L14-30P twistlock Plug, on one end, which will plug directly
into the mating twistlock receptacle on the control panel of your
generator. The opposite end comes equipped with a special 4
circuit connector comprised of four 5-20R receptacles. These
may be used to power individual loads. NOTE: For 120 volt
use only. Make sure the loads do not exceed the 20 amp
rating of the Power Cord Set. Circuit breaker protection is
provided for on the control panel of your generator.
You will notice that the 4-circuit connector is color coded.
When several loads are powered at the same time, it is best to
keep equal loads supplied to each separately colored half, if
possible. Each half of the connector is capable of sustaining 20
amps of current provided your generator is capable of
supplying 4800 watts of power. Check nameplate ratings for
total wattage capability of the generator.
