OPERATION

AC Parallel Operation Applications

Both types of EU2000i generators (Standard and Companion) can be
connected to each other to increase the available power using a parallel
cable kit (optional equipment, see page 74).
Follow the instructions included with the parallel operation cable kit.
Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
• Make sure that it is in good working order. A faulty appliance or
power cord can create a potential for electrical shock.
• If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or
stops suddenly, turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance,
and determine whether the problem is the appliance or the rated load
capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
• Never connect different generator models.
• For parallel operation, use only a Honda approved parallel operation
cable kit (optional equipment, see page 74) when connecting one
EU2000i to either an EU2000i Companion or another EU2000i
generator.
• Never connect or remove the parallel operation cable when the
generator is running.
• For single generator operation, the parallel operation cable must be
removed.
