Oh wise list with experts in all fields,
I have a 4500 continuous watt generator. It has (2) 120 volt standard
receptacles protected by an on board 20 amp breaker and a 4 prong 240 volt
receptacle protected by another on board 20 amp breaker. Since it's rated
at 4500 watts should it be able to provide 37.5 amps @ 120 volts (w/v=a)?
If so, why is it protected by a 20 amp breaker? I'm not an electrician so
don't laugh at me too hard if I'm wrong :)
Thanks,
James
