MAXIMUM AND RATED POWER


A generator should never be operated at its MAXIMUM power output for more than 30 minutes.
RATED power is a more reliable measure of generator power. It is the power that a generator can produce for long periods of time. Typically the RATED power is 90% of the MAXIMUM power.


Rated and Maximum


Model number = maximum . output in watts.
Maximum power for 1/2 hour.
Rated is usually 10% less.
