These generators are rated in accordance with UL2200, Safety Standard for Stationary
Engine Generator Assemblies; and CSA-C22.2 No. 100-04 Standard for Motors and
Generators.
* Natural Gas ratings will depend on specific fuel Btu content. Typical derates are
between 10-20% off the LP gas rating.
** Circuits to be moved must be protected by same size breaker. For example, a 15 amp
Circuit
circuit in the main panel must be a 15 amp circuit in the transfer switch.

This unit is tested in accordance to UL 2200 standards
with an operating temperature of 20 °F (-29 °C) to 122
°F. (50 °C). For areas where temperatures fall below 32
°F (0 °C), a cold weather kit is highly recommended.
When operated above 77º F (25º C) there may be a
decrease in engine power. (Please reference the engine
