CIRCUIT CONFIGURATION
SGX3500 Operation:
This generator provides two independent 120V power circuits, and each circuit is protected against overload by a
magnetic circuit breaker. Circuit 1 is available via one 120V GFCI duplex receptacle (two actual outlets). Up to 15A may
be drawn through one or both outlets on the receptacle, independent of any loads on circuit 2.
Circuit 2 is available via a 3-prong 120V locking receptacle*. Up to 15A may be drawn through this circuit independent of
any loads on circuit 1.
A 4-prong 120/240V locking receptacle** is also provided. Circuits 1 & 2 are both available via this receptacle, as is a
single 240V circuit.

*This NEMA L5-30R receptacle requires a custom cordset – parts can purchased at any local home center or hardware
store. Or a pre-made cordset is available from SUBARU that converts this receptacle to work with ordinary 120V plugs.
** This NEMA L14-30R receptacle requires a custom cordset – parts can purchased at any local home center or
hardware store. It is typically used for connecting the generator to the home service panel. You must consult a licensed
electrician and use a double pole transfer switch when connecting a generator to your home service panel.
If a circuit breaker trips due to excessive load, try to balance the load by moving cords from the most heavily loaded
circuit to the more lightly loaded circuit. If the circuit breaker continues to trip, you are exceeding the capacity of the
generator.
