RECEPTACLES
12 Volt DC, 10 Amp Receptacle
This receptacle allows you to recharge a 12 Volt
automotive or utility style storage battery with the battery
charge cables provided (Figure 12).
This receptacle can not recharge 6 Volt batteries and can
not be used to crank an engine having a discharged battery.
See the section “Charging a Battery” (page 10) before
attempting to recharge a battery.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex
Receptacles
Each duplex receptacle (Figure 13) is protected against
overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.
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).
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) (Figure 14).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 7,200 watts of power (7.2 kW)
at 30 Amps for 120 Volts or 240 Volts.The outlet is
protected by a rocker switch circuit breaker.
Figure 12 — 12 Volt DC, 10 Amp Receptacle
• 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”.
Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater
than generator output capacity.
