OPERATION
Parallel Generator Operation
Parallel operation features, kits sold separately.
Two POLARIS parallel ready generators can be connected together to
increase the total power available to a load. The system seamlessly
matches frequency and automatically evenly distributes the load to each
generator so one is not overloaded.
Operating the generators in parallel has 0.9 power de-rate factor. For
example, connecting a 1kw and 2kw together in parallel operation, the
continuous rated combined output will equal 0.9x (900w + 1600w) =
2250W.
Any combination of two POLARIS parallel ready generators can be
connected such as a P2000i and a P1000i, two P2000i models, etc.
There are two different parallel connection kits. One kit has a 30A
receptacle ideal for connecting two P2000i models or a P2000i and a
P1000i.
Parallel operation procedure
1. Turn off both generators and disconnect all the electrical devices
from the generators
2. Prepare two parallel ready generators for operation. Place them on a
hard and level surface.
3. Connect the parallel kit to each
generator by inserting one pair of
leads from the parallel box to the
parallel receptacles (A) on the
panel
4. Ground the generators (B).
5. Start both generators and confirm
that both green "RUN" lights are
illuminated. The Smart throttle
system may be used as long as the
Smart throttle setting of both
generators is the same.
6. Securely plug the electrical
appliance plug into parallel cable
receptacle and switch on the
electrical appliance power supply.
