How to reset the breakers

0

To reset the breakers on a Generac GP Series generator, locate the circuit breaker that has tripped. If the amperage rating of a breaker is exceeded, it will open, cutting electrical output to the receptacle. The breaker is a "push-to-reset" type. Simply press the breaker button to reset it and restore power to the affected receptacle.
