CONTROL PANEL
A. 120 V, 20 Ampere Duplex Receptacle
20 amps of current may be drawn from each half of the
receptacle. However, total power drawn must be kept within
nameplate ratings. These receptacles may be used along with
the twistlock receptacle provided the generator is not over-
loaded.
b. 120/240 V, 20 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
A maximum of 20 amps may be drawn from the 120/240
volt receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle used. However,
current must be limited to the nameplate rating. If the 120/240
volt receptacle is used along with the 120 volt receptacle, the
total load drawn must not exceed the nameplate ratings.
C. Circuit breakers
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit breaker. If
the generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs,
the circuit breaker will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all electri-
cal loads and try to determine the cause of the problem before
attempting to use the generator again. If overloading causes the
circuit breaker to trip, reduce the load.
NOTE: Continuous trip-
ping of the circuit breaker may cause damage to generator
or equipment. The circuit breaker may be reset by pushing the
button of the breaker.
D. Cord Retainer
The cord retainer is used to prevent plugs from being pulled
out of the 120-volt receptacles.
