Cord Sets And Receptacles - Briggs & Stratton Elite Serie Manual Del Operario

Cord Sets and Receptacles

Use only high quality, well-insulated, grounded extension
cords with the generator's receptacles. Inspect extension
cords before each use.
Check the ratings of all extension cords before you use
them. Extension cord sets used should be rated for 125
Volts AC loads 20 Amps or greater. Check operator's
manuals of devices to be powered for the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Keep extension cords as short as possible to minimize
voltage drop.
WARNING Damaged or overloaded electrical cords
could overheat, arc, and burn resulting in death,
serious injury, and/or property damage.
• ONLY use cords rated for your loads.
• Follow all safeties on electrical cords.
• Inspect cord sets before each use.
