7. AC Parallel Operation
AC parallel operation allows the connection between two generators to increase available power.
Before connecting an appliance to either generator during parallel operation, you must:
o Make sure that the appliance is in good working order.
o Verify the appliance electrical rating does not exceed that of the receptacle.
o Ensure that each generator is individually grounded. See Installation/Initial Set-up section.
o Ensure that the ESC switch is in the same position on both generators.
o Make sure all devices that were connected to the generator’s outlets have been disconnected.
Note: 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 off within 4 seconds. If the overload indicator (red) stays
on, contact Powerhorse Product Support @ 1-866-443-2576.
