Hour Meter Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle (rotate to lock/unlock). Connect a suitable 4wire grounded cord set to plug and desired load. The cord set should be rated 250 Volts AC at 30 Amps (or greater). See Figure 2-6. Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) of power at 30 Amps or 240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 7200 watts (7.2 kW) of power at 30 Amps. The outlet is protected by one 30 Amp 2-pole circuit breaker. 7 000204 Figure 2-6. 120/240 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle NEMA L14-30R COsense® Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detection and Shut-off System (if equipped) The COsense module monitors for the accumulation of poisonous CO gas found in engine exhaust when the generator is running. If COsense detects increasing levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine. COsense only monitors when the engine is running. Generators are intended to be used outdoors, far from occupied buildings and the exhaust pointed away from personnel and buildings. However, if mis-used and operated in a location that results in the accumulation of CO, like indoors or in a partially enclosed area, COsense shuts off the engine, notifies the user of what has happened and directs the user to read the instruction action label for steps to take. See Figure 2-7. COsense is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm. ! See Figure 2-8. After a shut-off, a blinking RED light in the COsense badge on the side of the generator provides notification that the generator was shut off due to an accumulating CO hazard. The RED light will blink for at least five minutes after a CO shut-off. Move the generator to an open, outdoor area and point the exhaust away from people and occupied buildings. Once relocated to a safe area, the generator can be restarted and the proper electrical connections made to supply electrical power. The RED light will stop blinking automatically upon engine re-start. Introduce fresh air and ventilate the location where the generator had shut down. See Figure 2-8. If a COsense system fault has occurred and no longer provides protection, the portable generator is shut off automatically and the YELLOW light will blink for at least five minutes in the COsense badge to notify the user of the fault. The COsense module can only be diagnosed and repaired by a trained technician at the dealer. The generator can be re-started, but may continue to shutoff. COsense will detect the accumulation of Carbon Monoxide from other fuel burning sources such as engine powered tools or propane heaters used in the area of operation. For example, if another generator is used and the exhaust is pointed at a COsense equipped generator, COsense may initiate a shut-off due to rising CO levels. This is not an error. Hazardous Carbon Monoxide has been detected. The user must take action to move and re-direct these devices to better dissipate Carbon Monoxide far away from personnel and occupied buildings. ! ! 006681 Figure 2-7.

(000103) WARNING Asphyxiation. Always use a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors and installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury. (000178a) DANGER Asphyxiation. The exhaust system must be properly maintained. Do not alter or modify the exhaust system as to render it unsafe or make it noncompliant with local codes and/or standards. Failure to do so will result in death or serious injury. (000179b) Grounding the Portable Generator See Figure 3-1. The portable generator is equipped with a terminal for the connection of a field grounding electrode conductor where a grounding electrode system is required by NEC Article 250.34(A). The equipment grounding conductor terminals of the generator receptacles are bonded to the generator frame. Where the generator supplies power to cord and plug connected equipment, like power tools, the frame of the generator is not required by the NEC to be connected to a field grounding electrode. The generator neutral conductor is bonded to the generator frame in accordance with NEC Article 250.34(C). • NEUTRAL BONDED TO FRAME • THERE IS A PERMANENT CONDUCTOR BETWEEN THE GENERATOR (STATOR WINDING) AND FRAME See Figure 3-1. Where the generator is connected to a manual transfer switch, the transfer switch must also switch the neutral upon transfer to be NEC code compliant (3-Pole switch). A grounding electrode is required to be connected to the generator frame to properly ground the generator. The ground wire connected from the generator terminal/frame to a field ground electrode shall be of equal or larger ampacity than the largest conductor used in the generator. Generac HomeLink manual transfer switches and kits meet this requirement and are recommended for use. WARNING Risk of fire. Do not use generator without spark arrestor installed. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury. (000118a) WARNING Risk of Fire. Hot surfaces could ignite combustibles, resulting in fire. Fire could result in death or serious injury. 000227 (000110) Figure 3-1.Grounding the Generator WARNING Hot Surfaces. When operating machine, do not touch hot surfaces. Keep machine away from combustibles during use. Hot surfaces could result in severe burns or fire. (000108) CAUTION Equipment and property damage. Disconnect electrical loads prior to starting or stopping unit. Failure to do so could result in equipment and property damage. (000136) 12 Special Requirements Review all Federal or State Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, local codes, or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator. Consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or the local agency having jurisdiction: • In some areas, generators are required to be registered with local utility companies. Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator • If the generator is used at a construction site, there may be additional regulations which must be observed. Connecting the Generator to a Building Electrical System It is recommended to use a manual transfer switch when connecting directly to a building electrical system to prevent hazardous backfeeding and avoid injuring utility line workers. When connecting a portable generator to a building electrical system, a transfer switch must isolate the generator power from the utility power at all times. Failure to comply will result in a hazardous condition. Installation is to be made in strict compliance with all national and local electrical codes and laws, and be completed by a qualified electrician. Know Generator Limits Overloading a generator can result in damage to the generator and connected electrical devices. Observe the following to prevent overload: • Add the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the generator's wattage capacity. • The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light bulbs. The rated wattage of tools, appliances, and motors can be found on a data label or decal affixed to the device. • If the appliance, tool, or motor does not give wattage, multiply volts times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps = watts). • Some electric motors, such as induction types, require approximately three times more watts of power for starting than for running. This surge of power lasts only a few seconds when starting such motors. Make sure to allow for high starting wattage when selecting electrical devices to connect to the generator: 1. Calculate the watts needed to start the largest motor. 2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected loads. The Wattage Reference Guide is provided to assist in determining how many items the generator can operate at one time. NOTE: All figures are approximate. See data label on appliance for wattage requirements.
