main circuit breaker is provided to protect the UVW output
terminals from overload. In addition two single-pole, 20 amp
GFCI circuit breakers are provided to protect the GFCI
receptacles from overload. Three 50 amp load circuit breakers
have also been provided to protect the load side of the
generator from overload. Make sure to switch ALL circuit
breakers to the "OFF" position prior to starting the engine.
Maximum Output
The entire load connected to the UVW Lugs, all four slots in the
duplex receptacles, and the must not exceed 132 kW in
standby or 120 kW in prime output.
Twist Lock Dual Voltage Receptacles - To use these
receptacles, place the voltage selector switch in the single
phase 240/120 voltage position and adjust the output
voltage to 240 volts with the voltage regulator on the
Control Panel. Place the voltmeter change-over switch to
the U-W position and the ammeter change-over switch to
the U or W to read the output.
