GenTran 73131A Parallel Power Kit for RV Generator Applications Review

GenTran 73131A Parallel Power Kit for RV Generator Applications
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product allows me to parallel my two Honda EU2000i generators in order to adequately power my travel trailer. A larger generator would have done the same thing (thus not needing the GenTran Parallel Power Kit), but since the smaller Honda's are much easier for me to lift and carry from place to place the larger generator was impractical. The GenTran Parallel Power Kit was just the ticket for my application!

The GenTran parallel power kit for RV applications can link together two Honda EU2000i generators to double your power; some loads require more power than just one generator can deliver, so this patent-pending, Honda-certified accessory conveniently helps you run larger loads or more loads at the same time. This kit is ideal for on-the-road use, allowing you to run on-board appliances on your RV or camper such as AC units (up to 13,000 BTU), water heaters, lights, microwaves, refrigerators and more. All you have to do is bolt the power kit's bracket onto one of the generators, connect the parallel cables to both generators, and connect a 30 Amp shore power cord (NEMA TT-30R). This product includes all hardware needed to assemble it in minutes, and it comes with an RV inlet (NEMA TT-30R) for easy hookup. The bolt-on, streamlined design minimizes vibration, provides convenient use in damp environments, and makes storing easy. A 30 Amp breaker is provided to protect against generator or appliance overload; the total output of the unit is limited to protect the wiring between the generators, the parallel kit, and the appliances. The bolt-on, streamlined design minimizes vibration, provides convenient use in damp environments and makes for easy storing. The resin frame and enclosure ensure long life and won't rust. The maximum combined output for this unit is 4,000 watts; it is 3200 rated and intended for 120 volt use only. This parallel power kit weighs 6 pounds and is backed by a 2-year limited warranty.

We're dealing with alternating current here. Ask yourself how the "make-it-yourself" advice is going to synchronize those sine waves. Not saying I recommend this particular product mind you. The Honda kit is cheaper and it's made by Honda.

Using two Honda EU2000i generators to feed backup power to your home or business during an outage, the GenTran 30 Amp 8-circuit transfer switch doubles your power. When you're not using both generators for standby power, you can use them separately for tailgating, camping or boating. To use during an outage, just bolt on this bracket to one of the generators, connect the parallel cables to both generators, and connect a 30 Amp 10 gauge 3-wire cord (NEMA L5-30) from the parallel kit to a transfer switch or power inlet box.A 30 Amp breaker is provided for protection against generator or appliance overload. The breaker limits the total output of the unit and protects the wiring between the generators, the parallel kit, and the appliances in your home or business. A bolt-on, streamlined design minimizes vibration, offers convenient use in damp environments, and stores easily. The resin frame and enclosure ensure long life without rusting. All the hardware is included for easy assembly in minutes. It comes with a 2-year limited warranty.

This is an excellent product. It was easy to install and easy to use. I chose this product because some of the competing products have more wiring involved and it is possible to backfeed house power into your generator. With this switch panel, that unhappy outcome is impossible. I strongly recomend this product.

GenTran 14302 30 Amp Aluminum Power Inlet Box for up to 7,500-Watt Generators Review

It is what it is. I had no problems installing it. It would have been great if the item came with a door already attached, but you can always buy it if you think you need it. The door option is a little pricey. Or you can just put tape over the connector to keep out the wasps and spiders and such. This unit sits behind some bushes, but if it were out in the open, I would probably paint the thing to have it blend in with the house. It is big, but it has to be to have enough room for the large guage wires to be connected.

You can avoid running generator cords through a door or window with the GenTran 30 Amp aluminum power inlet box. If your electrical panel is in the basement or an interior room, you'll need to mount this power inlet box on the exterior of your house or building and hardwire to transfer switch. You can connect generators up to 7,500 watts to this power inlet box during an outage. Constructed of rust-free aluminum, this box is rain-tight even when the cord is connected. The NEMA 3R-rated aluminum enclosure won't rust and it includes a NEMA L14-30 male inlet. It comes with a 2-year limited warranty.
