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. Check the operator's manuals of devices for the
manufacturer's recommendations.
A double pole rocker switch main circuit breaker is
provided to protect the locking receptacle. If this circuit
breaker is tripped, all receptacles are disconnected.
WARNING Damaged or overloaded electrical
cords could overheat, arc, and burn
resulting in death or serious injury.
• ONLY use cords rated for your loads.
• Follow all safeties on electrical cords.
• Inspect cord sets before each use.
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). You can use the same 4-wire
cord if you plan to run a 120 Volt load.
4-Wire Cord Set
Y (Hot)
NEMA L14-30
This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz,
single phase loads requiring up to 6,250 watts of
power (6.25 kW) at 26.0 Amps for 240 Volts or two
independent 120 Volt loads at 26.0 Amps each. The
outlet is protected by a two pole rocker switch circuit
breaker.
NOTICE Receptacles may be marked with rating
value greater than generator output capacity.
• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more
amperage than generator or receptacle can supply.
• DO NOT overload the generator. See Don't Overload
Generator.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, GFCI Duplex Receptacles
Each GFCI duplex receptacle is protected against
overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.
240V
120V
120V
W (Neutral)
X (Hot)
Ground (Green)
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single-
phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts
(2.4 kW) at 20 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are
rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps (or greater).

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
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
The GFCI protects against electrical shock that may be
caused if your body becomes a path which electricity
travels to reach 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.
WARNING Generator voltage could cause
electrical shock or burn resulting in death or
serious injury.
• Contact with the hot and neutral conductor at the same
time can cause electrical shock or burn, even if the circuit
is GFCI protected.
• Before using the GFCI receptacle, ALWAYS push the
test button to insure it works.
Testing the GFCI
Test your GFCI outlet prior to each use, as follows:
• Push the "Test" button. The "Reset" button should
pop out, which should allow no power to reach the
outlet. Use a test lamp in each outlet to test this.
• If the GFCI tests good, restore power by pressing
the "Reset" button firmly until it is fully in place
and locks in that position. If the GFCI outlet
does not reset properly, do not use the outlet.
Call or take your generator to a local service
center.
• If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset and
test the outlet. If the reset button does not pop
out when the test button is pressed, do not
use the outlet. Call or take your generator to
a local service center.
