Connecting Electrical Loads; Parallel Operation; Maximum Output - Briggs & Stratton P3000 Manual Del Operador

Connecting Electrical Loads

1. Make sure the green output indicator light comes
on (it may take up to three seconds).
2. Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few
minutes after starting.
3. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC,
single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
NOTICE When plugging into the 120 Volt duplex
receptacles, plug items to be powered in sequence as
shown below.

NOTICE
• DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to the 120 Volt
receptacles.
• DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.
• DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
• DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. See
Don't Overload Generator.
NOTICE Exceeding generators wattage/amperage
capacity could damage generator and/or electrical
devices connected to it.
• DO NOT exceed the generator's wattage/amperage
capacity. See Don't Overload Generator in the
Operation section.
• Start generator and let engine stabilize before
connecting electrical loads.
• Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn
ON for operation.
• Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from
generator before stopping generator.

Parallel Operation

Two Briggs & Stratton inverter generators can be run
in parallel with a Briggs & Stratton parallel operation
kit (optional equipment). When running in parallel, the
total output of power is shown in chart.

See the parallel operation kits instruction sheet for
detailed instructions on installation and operation of the
connected generators.

NOTICE
• Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from
both generators.
• The QPT switch must be in the same position on
both generators.
• Connect the power cables to both generators
before starting the engines. See instruction sheet
supplied with parallel kit.
• Start engine on one of the inverter generators
according to Starting the Engine.
• Once the green LED output indicator light on the
first generators is steady, start second generator.
• Connect and turn on electrical loads to the parallel
panel receptacles.
• DO NOT disconnect power cables after engines
have been started.
• Shut down engines as described in Stopping the
Engine.
