MQP20P STANDBY GENERATOR • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (11/28/11) — PAGE 29
JACKET WATER HEATER AND INTERNAL BATTERY
CHARGER
This generator is equipped with a jacket water heater and
an internal battery charger. They are provided with electric
cords to connect to a commercial power source.
These units will ONLY function when commercial power has
been supplied to them (Figure 21). When using extension
cords, refer to Table 7 for the correct size and length.
The battery charger should always be connected to a
commercial power source to ensure that the battery does
not get discharged.
When using the generator in hot climates there is no
need to apply power to jacket water heater. However, if the
generator will be used in cold climates, it is best to apply
power to the jacket water heater at all times.
