In Reply to: Sizing big generator posted by pat sublett on March 17, 2017 at 17:40:40:
I have a 30 kw Cummins Onan generator that runs on propane or natural gas. It is single phase 220 volts. My house is 3,000 sq. Ft. It will run everything all at once, incl. 2 AC umits, electric water heaters, and electric oven. It can run full capacity 24/7/365. It has a 4 cyl. GM fork lift type engine rated for 10,000 hours running 1,800 rpm. Your Home Depot type generators have lawn mower type engines in them running at 3,600 rpm. Most of them have load management electronics that will start and stop up to 2 AC units to manage the load. Nothing at all wrong with those units, I just wanted the commercial quality. Diesel units are fine if you want to change the fuel out periodically. If you buy your generator from a reputable company it should put out more than rated output.

The need for fabricating becomes obvious when you go to buy any of these
