CORD SETS AND RECEPTACLES
Use only high quality, well-insulated, extension cords
with the generator's 120 Volt electrical receptacles.
CAUTION
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".
Check the ratings of all extension cords before you
use them. Extension cord sets used should be rated
for 125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps or greater for most
electrical devices. Some devices, however, may not
require this type of extension cord. Check the owner's
manuals of those devices for the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferably
less than 15 feet long, to prevent voltage drop and
possible overheating of wires.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp Duplex Receptacle
Each receptacle is protected against overload by a
single 20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use each
receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single phase 60 Hz
electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW) at
20 Amps of current.
120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp Receptacle
This is a full capacity receptacle; it can supply the
generator's full rated output from this sole outlet. The
outlet is protected by two 20 Amp push–to–reset
circuit breakers.
4-Wire Cord Set
Y (Hot)
NEMA L14-30
A NEMA L14-30 plug is used with this 240 Volt
receptacle. Connect a suitable 4-wire cord set to the
plug and to the desired load. The cord set should be
rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or greater).
