Will this cord work with a generator that's 8500 peak and 7500 running wattage?

I'm a retired local 3 electrican. This coid will handel the 8500 watts no problem. You'll probably never be using 8500 watts anyway. But I've used this cord o three genrator installations and never had any issues.

Yes according to reliance, you can use this as long as your generator has the standard 30 amp outlet plug that matches this cord. The reliance website lists this cord under accessories and lists it for max 7500 running watts. You should have a 30 amp breaker on your generator where this plugs in, according to reliance this limits the output of the generator to 7500 watts (30 amps times 250 volts = 7500 watts) so it is my understanding that if you were to draw more than the 7500 watts the cord is rated for the breaker would trip so this cord would be fine assuming you have a 30 amp breaker on the generator outlet where this cord plugs in.

I'm not an expert but I would think as long as you don't go above the 7500 there shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully someone here has the expertise and can confirm for you. Although I would still call the company and speak with a knowledgeable representative.

This is a 230 volt AC. As long as generator supports this output then it should work. I would consult generator manufacturer for the details prior to ordering

Sorry, I can not answer that question as we have never used it with a generator.

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

Any generator that is at least 1000 watts will operate this unit. We suggest getting on a little bigger incase you want to run something else.

No Idea what the specs are on your part number ...I have successfully used mine on a Tecumseh 8HP generator. >>your mileage may vary<<

iit all depends what size generator you are using. if its 7500 no . it woun't work need 30 amp 2pole breaker

I'm sure it'll do fine. It's rated 1600W, so your 800W should be no prob. Powers my 1/2HP sump pump fine, which I think is much less efficient than yours drawing a bit more than 800W from source.

The only difference between this and the 30 amp model, I believe isthe 30216 is the plug in adapter. Because you will have to have some kind of pigtail to get the plug to fit into your generator anyway I would go with the 30216. It seems to be a more standard size for hooking up and you shouldn't,t have to pay to much more for this setup. Plus if you end up going a little bigger on the generator at some point you'll be covered. To answer your question though, yes this will work.

I'm not an expert but I don't think this thing draws hardly any watts or amps etc. I lost my instruction booklet because half of the unit stopped working and MinnKota said it can't be fixed. I kept it to use as a trickle charger for cars, boats etc. I would think almost any generator would make this charger work. It' basically a trickle charger so it's gonna run your generator a long time to charge a battery a battery. You might want a more powerful charger depending on your use to shorten the generator run time..

I see no reason why it wouldn't work, as long as your generator has a standard 3 prong plug.

It all depends on the connections on the generator. There are basically two different styles of cables, 30-amp and 50-amp. The connectors are different between them. This connection box is a 50-amp connection so if your generator matches, you can simply install this and plug in your cable. If instead you have a 30-amp connector on your generator, you can either use the 30-amp version of this box, or buy a small pigtail conversion cable that changes the 50-amp connection to a 30-amp. My advice is to use this box no matter what style of connection you have and use the short conversion cable if you need it. The reason this makes more sense is that you may eventually want to upgrade your generator to a larger one and will need the 50-amp box to make that work. It may be overkill for now, but makes upgrading easier. Anyone buying your home in the future will appreciate this as well. Good luck and I hope this answer helps.

9375 SURGE watts. Maximum running load is 7500 watts. This unit will handle it with ease. See my response to your other question.

No this switch is for a 240volt 30 amp 4 wire outlet. Your generator is only 120 volt 25 amp 3 wire.... i would not put a gen switch in for this generator. I would sell that generator and buy a 8500watt 240 volt generator. Good luck

Not sure but I have a 8000 / 10000 watt gen. I run 3000 Watts from the gen itself and 6000 Watts goes through the cord. Never had a problem.

Might be OK, but realize that the product rating is a lot lower than 7000W (~1800 Watts). Also, not sure what the amp output on your generator is, but realize that this is only rated for 15 amps (which is a typical forced air furnace circuit in my neighborhood) so it is expecting a simple extension cord input. (I believe that there may be other models that are rated for higher Amp/Watt). Note: one thing to watch out for is whether your generator produces "clean" power - from what I have read, the electronic circuit boards in some furnaces struggle with generators that produce a power range and fluctuating signal that is OK for power tools, but not so good for electronics.

http://generator-parts.com/onan/1GENSETS/983-0201D.pdfThe part seems to be the same for the 7000 as for the 5500
