Q: Jim When you have the EU 2000I and the companion .... Do you connect the Parallel cables up first ... Then Start both units... Then connect the 30 amp... RV 120 cable.... Sounds right to you?.. Any other way in my opinion is dangerous and not right... What do you say?? by Frank from New Mexico on May 16, 2012
A: 1. Connect the parallel operation cable between the EU2000i Companion to either an EU2000i or another EU2000i Companion generator following the instructions supplied with the cable kit.
2. Start the engines and make sure the output indicator (green) on each generator comes on.
3. Plug an appliance into the 30A twist lock receptacle.
4. Turn on the appliance.
**If the generators are overloaded, or if there is a short circuit in a connected appliance, the overload indicator (red) will go ON. The overload indicator (red) will stay ON, and after about four seconds, current to the connected appliance(s) will shut off, and the output indicator (green) will go OFF. Stop both engines and investigate the problem.
Determine if the cause is a short circuit in a connected appliance or an overload. Correct the problem and restart the generator.
Follow the instructions included with the parallel operation cable kit. Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
Make sure that it is in good working order. A faulty appliance or power cord can create a potential for electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or stops suddenly, turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance, and determine whether the problem is the appliance or the rated load capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
Make sure that the combined electrical rating of the tools or appliances do not exceed that of the generator. Never exceed the maximum power rating of the generator. Power levels between rated and maximum may be used for no more than 30 minutes.
Never connect different generator models.
For parallel operation, use only a Honda approved parallel operation cable kit (optional equipment) when connecting one EU2000i Companion to either an EU2000i or another EU2000i Companion generator.
Never connect different generator models.
For parallel operation, use only a Honda approved parallel operation cable kit (optional equipment, see page ) when connecting one EU2000i Companion to either an EU2000i or another EU2000i Companion generator.
Never connect or remove the parallel operation cable when the generator is running.
For single generator operation, the parallel operation cable must be removed.
***Substantial overloading that continuously lights the overload indicator (red) may damage the generator. Marginal overloading that temporarily lights the overload indicator (red) may shorten the service life of the generator.
