What to do if my Generac Power Systems GP5500 Portable Generator produces zero voltage?
If your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator produces zero voltage or residual voltage, try the following: reset the system to the “ON” position, or replace the component if it is bad. Re-check voltage at the receptacle panel, replace bad brushes, or replace the automatic voltage regulator.
How to fix high voltage at no-load on Generac Power Systems Portable Generator?
To fix high voltage at no-load on your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator, check and adjust the engine governor for both the 389cc and 410cc engines. You may also need to replace the capacitor.
What to do if there is excessive voltage/frequency droop when load is applied to my Generac Power Systems Portable Generator?
If you notice excessive voltage/frequency droop when a load is applied to your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator, reduce the load.
