Expert Advice

When deciding on generator size, we recommend choosing a machine with 20% more capacity than required. This helps prevent overloading and extends the lifetime of the unit.

Important Notes

• An electrician is required to conduct a load-test to ensure your decision is based on your needed amperage per phase.
• Generators are designed to run at 80% of maximum output at sea level and in neutral climates. Altitude and temperature can reduce engine efficiency.

Limitations of Use

• Do not use more than 50% of your generator’s rated load for the first step load.
• Do not use more than 75% of the rated load for continuous running.
• These limitations help accommodate power spikes and drops that occur during combustion.
