Cord Sets and Receptacles
Use only high quality, well-insulated, grounded extension
cords with the generator’s receptacles. Inspect extension
cords before each use.
Check the ratings of all extension cords before you use
them. Check the operator’s manuals of devices for the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
A double pole rocker switch main circuit breaker is provided
to protect the locking receptacle. If this circuit breaker is
tripped, all receptacles are disconnected.
120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp, Locking Receptacle
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a
4-wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or
greater). You can use the same 4-wire cord if you plan to
run a 120 Volt load.
This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase
loads requiring up to 6,250 watts of power (6.25 kW) at
26.0 Amps for 240 Volts or two independent 120 Volt loads
at 26.0 Amps each. The outlet is protected by a two pole
rocker switch circuit breaker.
NOTICE
Receptacles may be marked with rating value
greater than generator output capacity.
• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage than
generator or receptacle can supply.
• DO NOT overload the generator. See Don’t Overload Generator.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacles
The generator has two 120 Volt, 20 Amp duplex receptacles.
Each receptacle is protected against overload by push-to-
reset circuit breakers.
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single-phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW) at
20 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for 125 Volt
AC loads at 20 Amps (or greater). Inspect cord sets before
each use.
Generator Adapter Cord Set
The generator comes with a 25' generator adapter cord set
designed to provide two sets of 120 Volt, 20 Amp outlets
from one 120 Volt, 20 Amp duplex receptacle.
The maximum load on each outlet is 20 Amps. The
maximum total load on both red dot outlets or blue dot
outlets is 20 Amps.
NOTICE Follow all safety precautions when connecting any
extension cord or device to the generator.
