120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp, Locking
Receptacle
Use a NEMA L14–30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a
4–wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or
greater) (Figure 8).You can use the same 4–wire cord if you
plan to run a 120 Volt load.

4-Wire Cord Set
NEMA L14-30
This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single
phase loads requiring up to 7,200 watts of power (7.2 kW)
at 30 Amps for 240 Volts or two independent 120 Volt
loads at 30 Amps each.The outlet is protected by a double
pole rocker switch circuit breaker.
IMPORTANT: This generator's locking receptacle and the
provided adapter cord set are not protected by a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If used on an OSHA
governed job site, appropriate GFCI protection must be
utilized.

OPERATION
120 Volt AC, 15 Amp, GFCI Duplex
Receptacles
Each duplex receptacle (Figure 9) is protected against
overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.
Figure 9 — 120 Volt, 15 Amp GFCI Duplex Receptacle
NOTE: If the double pole circuit breaker is tripped, the
duplex receptacles are disconnected.
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 1,800 watts (1.8 kW)
at 15 Amps of current. Use grounded cord sets that are
rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 15 Amps (or greater).
Inspect cord sets before each use.

Ground Fault Protection

The duplex receptacles are equipped with Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection.This device meets
applicable federal, state and local codes.The generator's
locking receptacle is not protected by a GFCI.
The GFCI protects against electrical shock that may be
caused if your body becomes a path which electricity
travels to reach the ground.This could happen if you touch
a "Live" appliance or wire, or are touching plumbing or
other materials that connect to the ground.
When protected by a GFCI, one may still feel a shock, but
the GFCI should cut current off quickly enough so that a
person in normal health should not suffer any serious
electrical injury.
Generator produces powerful voltage.
• The GFCI will not protect you against the following situations:
-Line-to-line shocks;
-Current overloads or line-to-line short circuits.
• The circuit breakers at the control panel provide overcurrent
protection.
