GA-2.5H — PRE-INSPECTION
Extension Cable
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or loads
at some distance from the generator, extension cords are
normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for distance in
length and amperage so that the voltage drop between the
generator and point of use (load) is held to a minimum. Use
the cable selection chart (Table 4) as a guide for selecting
proper cable size.
NOTE
Main Circuit Breaker
To protect the generator from an overload always place the
main circuit breaker in the "OFF" position prior to starting the
engine.
