OPERATION
AC Parallel Operation Applications
Both types of EU2000i generators (Standard and Companion) can be
connected to each other to increase the available power using a
parallel cable kit (optional equipment, see page
).
Substantial overloading that continuously lights the overload indicator
(red) may damage the generator. Marginal overloading that
temporarily lights the overload indicator (red) may shorten the service
life of the generator.
For single generator operation, the parallel operation cable must be
removed.
Never connect or remove the parallel operation cable when the
generator is running.
Follow the instructions included with the parallel operation cable kit.
Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
Make sure that it is in good working order. A faulty appliance or
power cord can create a potential for electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or
stops suddenly, turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance,
and determine whether the problem is the appliance or the rated
load capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
Make sure that the combined electrical rating of the tools or
appliances do not exceed that of the generator. Never exceed the
maximum power rating of the generator. Power levels between
rated and maximum may be used for no more than 30 minutes.
Never connect different generator models.
For parallel operation, use only a Honda approved parallel operation
cable kit (optional equipment, see page
) when connecting one
EU2000i Companion to either an EU2000i or another EU2000i
Companion generator.
