What a generator cord does

A generator power cord carries a generator's output to an inlet box or a single appliance. Its connector types and amperage must match both ends.

Power at this amperage
VoltageMaximum watts (amps × volts)Plan for about 80% continuous
120 V6,000 W4,800 W
240 V12,000 W9,600 W
Wattstanding calculationWattstanding calculation — watts = amps × volts. Electrical practice commonly limits continuous loads to about 80% of a circuit's rating; your electrician applies the code that governs your home.

Generators in our catalog with a matching listed outlet

A matching outlet is necessary but not sufficient: the generator's watts, the inlet, the cord and the panel all have to be correct. An electrician confirms the whole chain.

Safety and installation

SafetyNever plug a generator or battery system into a wall outlet to power the house ("backfeeding"): it can send electricity back into the utility lines and injure line workers, and it can start fires. Connecting a generator to a home's wiring is a job for a licensed electrician, with the permit and inspection your local code requires. Wattstanding does not give wiring instructions.

Compare this with other equipment in the transfer switch library or use the compatibility matrix.
