Essential Circuit Selection
When selecting the essential circuits that will be switched
to “Standby Power,” it is important that the sum of the
combined circuit loads does not exceed the wattage/
amperage capacity of the generator. To help you with your
selection of essential circuits, please consider the following:
• Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to
be connected at one time. This total should NOT be
greater than the generator’s wattage capacity.
The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light
bulbs. The rated wattage of tools, appliances and
motors can usually be found on a data plate or label
affixed to the device.
• If the appliance, tool or motor nameplate does not
list wattage, multiply volts times the ampere rating to
determine watts ( V olts x A mps = W atts).
Some electric motors (induction types) require about
three times more watts of power for starting than for
running. This surge lasts for only a few seconds. Be
sure you allow for this high starting wattage when
selecting electrical devices that will be energized by the
residential generator:
• Figure the watts required to start the largest motor.
• Add that to the total running watts of all other
connected loads.
This residential generator complies with the
following “stationary standby power rating”:
The standby power rating is applicable for supplying
power for the duration of normal power interruption. No
sustained overload capability is available for this rating.
This rating is applicable to installations served by
a reliable normal utility source. This rating is only
applicable to variable loads with an average load factor
of 80% of the standby rating. The standby rating is
only applicable for optional standby power where
the generator set serves as the backup to the normal
utility source.
Use the wattage reference table provided and mark those
circuits you consider “critical” or “essential”. Make sure you
and your installer consider the system’s altitude above sea
level and the ambient temperature range when determining
total generator load.
In a utility outage, you need to ‘manage’ power distribution
by turning off non-essential loads. Some examples of non
essential loads are as follows:
• Pool pump
• Hot tub
• Electric hot tub and/or pool heaters
• Central air conditioners
• Electric hot water heaters
• Electric range and/or oven
• Arc welder
• Non essential electric heaters
Delivery Inspection
Carefully inspect the residential generator for any damage
that may have occurred during shipment.
IMPORTANT
: If loss or damage is noted at time of
delivery, have the person(s) making delivery note all
damage on the freight bill and affix his signature under the
consignor’s memo of loss or damage. If loss or damage is
noted after delivery, separate the damaged materials and
contact the carrier and your installer for claim procedures.
Missing or damaged parts are not warranted.
