I have a champion 9000 watt generator with a reliance 10 circuit that give me 8000 watts transfer will this cord will work with it.

Sounds like if you have the 8000 watts output this cord will plug into your output receptacle on the generator, need to check the ratings on both the cord and generator. Remember this is the main feed line between your generator and home or what you are trying to supply with electricity. Use caution, proper rated inlet box and a transfer switch/panel. 8000 watts output is more than sufficient to run [minimal use] a normal size single family home during an outage. Also, when in doubt consult with a licensed electrician.

I use two of these cords plugged together on a 7000 watt Toro generator with a 10500 watt surge. It runs at 85% capacity with my central air on with no problem.

I think it will be under rated. Look at your generator's manual and see what they recommend.I am sure it would be #8 wire or bigger if you are going to be running a load at 8000 watts.http://www.generatorgrader.com/extension-cords-portable-generators/

I use it for a 7500 watt running and a 10500 watt surge generator and it works just fine. If you want to be especially safe check it after fifteen minutes of use, if the cord is hot discontinue. I'll bet it will be just fine.

If the 15 amp device is something big to start, It will not.I cant use my 15 amp compressor (Ridgid) using this 3500 W Champion Generator.

I don't believe you will need to do anything . Just make certain the neutral is disconnected from the power company by means of a positive discinnect to avoid back feed . I purchased the transfer switch , tie in receptical etc from Amazon when I got the generator. Lowes sells the same generator for about $100 bucks more. The transfer switch and load enter was by Reliance.

Yes if this is the same one I have.. I had to buy a 110 cord, that showed up as people who all so purchase this too. the darn cord was expensive. You can call the company.

The eu6500 has a l6-30 on the unit itself, this cord would not be needed with that generator

You will need to wire in a male receptacle which will accept the female plug on a normal generator power cord. I used the following:Reliance Controls PB30 L14-30 30 Amp Generator Power Cord Inlet Box For Up To 7,500 Watt Generators, and Conntek 20601-020 20-Feet, 30-Amp 125/250-Volt L14-30P/R , 4 Prong Transfer Switch Cord/Generator Extension CordHope that helps.

The honda generator I have requires a pigtail from the generator which looks like a simple extension cord plugin to a twenty amp plug which then plugs into your twenty amp cord that you will run out from the reliance box. Personally I wished I would have bought the 30 amp reliance box which is identical except for the plugin. The 30 amp connectors are more standard size and are more available than the 20 amp stuff in my experience.

It works on my 9000watt generator. the only problem you might have are the clips to the battery. I had to change the terminal on the generator to match with the battery connects. You could also just get some alligator clips for a fast fix.

I do not know. If the Champion 4000 generator has a standard female 30 amp four prong receptacle, you should be good to go.

Not knowing what else you have or how you plan to install the transfer switch it is difficult to be complete. You need a cord to go between the generator and the tranfer switch. Make sure the cord is long enough ao the generator will be a safe distance. Also make sure it has the correct conectors on both ends.

It will work with something like this.Conntek RV Generator Adapter with 20 Amp Straight Blade Male 5-20P Plug To RV 30 Amp Female Connector

All 30 amp generator cords are compatible. For instance the generator for this unit I purchased was a Briggs and Straton.

As long as the generator has a 30 amp 4 prong receptacle this transfer panel can be used

That will only do 5000 watts sorry. Swith not large enough for your generator

I agree with James, assuming your generator is peak 5500, you should be fine. Remember that the transfer switch likes to balance the load, half on one side A&B circuits and half on E&F circuits (C&D is for the 220volt circuit). Check out this web page, look at the Q&A section. http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/Reliance-Controls-20216A/p1113.html Switch is super easy to install, gauge works well to watch wattage load too. Be sure your amperages are right, that will trip the gen each time if not.

I would depend on what you are powering. If you are using more than 7500 watt then do not use this cord.
