loads consist of refrigerators, freezers, water
pumps, air conditioners, or small hand tools.
Connect the items that require the most wattage
first.
• Connect the lights next.

equipment connected to the generator. Plug
voltage sensitive appliances such at TV's, VCR's,
microwaves, ovens, computers, and cordless
telephones into a UL listed voltage surge protec-
tor, then connect the UL listed voltage surge
protector to the generator.
