Generator ran well on start up. Getting it ready for home back up. Great that it came with a 50 amp connection. All the features are easy to get to and easy to understand ,comes with a great owners manual. Longer handle would make it easier to move. Overall happy with Westinghouse.
Hooked up to home using the 50A plug on generator, Twenty foot/ 50A extension cord, Reliance PBN50 power inlet box, 6 ga. THHN wires to 50A breaker with mechanical interlock switch in electric panel. Runs entire home with 4 ton AC.
Now for the disclaimer. My 4 ton American Standard condenser is new and pulls less than 40 amps when compressor kicks in. If your condenser is old, or if you can hear it hitting hard when it starts, you may have to install a soft or hard start kit on the condensing unit.
I have only tested this for about an hour but cycled the AC on and off a few times and the generator performed very well. I'm in Houston area and the temp was almost 90 with ridiculous humidity when I ran this test.
