Step 4: Connecting Electrical Loads
To Restore Home Power Using a Transfer Switch
Connections to your home's electrical system must use a
manual transfer switch installed by a qualified electrician.
The connection must isolate the generator power from
the utility power and comply with all applicable laws and
electrical codes.
To Restore Power Using Extension Cords
Generator may only be loaded up to rated power under the
rated conditions as shown on unit data tag. Reduce load
when using generator outside of rated conditions.
Use only high quality, well-insulated extension cables in
accordance with IEC 60245-4 with the generator's 230
Volt AC outlets. Inspect extension cables before each use.
Check that all extension cables are suitably rated and are
not damaged. When using extension cords under 40° C,
the total length of cords for a cross section of 1.5 mm²
should not exceed 50 m or for a cross section of 2.5 mm²
should not exceed 80 m.
