Important Notices
This booklet is designed to familiarize estimators and installers with proper sizing guidelines for residential and commercial
generators. The information is not comprehensive, nor does it replace or supercede any material contained in any of
the written documents shipped with the equipment. This booklet should only be used in conjunction with the Owner’s
Manual, Installation Manual and other technical documents shipped with each product. Always read all accompanying
documentation carefully before attempting to install any generator, transfer switch or related equipment.
HOW TO USE THIS BOOKLET:
Within this booklet, you will find electrical load information, plus an outline of generator surge capability, fuel pipe sizing,
liquid propane tank sizing, and UPS / generator compatibility. The worksheet pages can be removed from the book and
photocopied to create additional Onsite Estimating Sheets for use with individual jobs.
SAFETY INFORMATION:
Proper sizing of the generator is crucial to the success of any installation and requires a good working knowledge of
electricity and its characteristics, as well as the varying requirements of the electrical equipment comprising the load. When
analyzing the electrical load, consult the manufacturer’s nameplate on each major appliance or piece of equipment to
determine its starting and running requirements in terms of watts, amps and voltage. When choosing the generator output
for commercial or industrial applications, select a rating that is approximately 20 to 25% higher than the peak load (for
example, if the load is about 40 kilowatts, select a 50 kilowatts genset). A higher rated generator will operate comfortably at
approximately 80% of its full capacity and will provide a margin of flexibility if the load increases in the future.
For safety reasons, it is recommended that the backup power system be installed, serviced and repaired by a Generator
Authorized Service Dealer or a competent, qualified electrician or installation technician who is familiar with applicable
codes, standards and regulations.
It is essential to comply with all regulations established by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) and
strict adherence to all local, state and national codes is mandatory. Before selecting a generator, check for municipal
ordinances that may dictate requirements regarding placement of the unit (setback from building and/or lot line), electrical
wiring, gas piping, fuel storage (for liquid propane or diesel tanks), sound and exhaust emissions.
