Ground Fault Protection
This unit is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). This device meets applicable federal,
state and local codes.
Test GFCI Circuit Breaker
Test your GFCI circuit breaker (see “Control Panel
Controls and Features” for location) every month, as
follows:
1. While generator is running and control panel cover
open, push white “Test” button. The circuit breaker
should trip (handle will move to approximate center
position), which will disconnect power to outlets.
2. If handle moves to center, reset circuit breaker by
firmly moving handle to “Off” (left) position, then to
“On” (right) position.
During Generator Use
If circuit breaker trips during use, it usually indicates faulty
electrical equipment or cords. However, test the circuit
breaker as follows;
1. Open control panel cover, disconnect loads, reset and
test circuit breaker as described earlier. Let generator
run without any loads for 1 minute.
2. If circuit breaker tests correctly, the electrical
equipment or extension cords may be faulty. Replace
faulty electrical equipment and cords before further
use.
