7. OPERATION:
AC parallel operation
Before connecting an appliance to either generator, make sure that it is in good working
order and that its electrical rating does not exceed that of the receptacle.
Most motorized appliances require more than their electrical rating for startup. When an
electrical motor is started, the overload indicator (red) may come on. This is normal if the
overload indicator (red) goes o within 4 seconds. If the overload indicator (red) stays on,
consult your generator dealer.
During parallel operation, the ESC switch should be in the same position on both
generators.
UNIT A
1. Connect the parallel operation cable between the AGi2100 to another AGi2100
generator following the instructions supplied with the cable kit.
2. Start the engines and make sure the output indicator (green) on each generator
comes on.
3. Plug an appliance into the AC receptacle.
4. Turn on the appliance.
If the generators are overloaded, or if there is a short circuit in a connected appliance,
the overload indicator (red) will go ON. The overload indicator (red) will stay ON, and
after about 4 seconds, current to the connected appliance(s) will shut o , and the output
indicator (green) will go OFF. Stop both engines and investigate the problem. Determine
if the cause is a short circuit in a
connected appliance or an overload. Correct the problem and restart the generator.
NOTICE
• Be sure to use the parallel cable or receptacle box supplied by manufacturer.
