ENDBELL
A . 120 V, 15 Ampere Duplex Receptacles
This duplex is split so that 15 amps of current may be
drawn from each half of the receptacle. However, total power
drawn must be kept within nameplate ratings.
B. Circuit Breaker
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit breaker. If
the generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs,
the circuit breaker 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 breaker to trip, reduce the load. NOTE:
Continuous tripping of the circuit breaker may cause
damage to generator or equipment. The circuit breaker may
be reset by pushing the button of the breaker.
