50 AMP power from a generator?
I need to get 50 AMP power from a generator. I’d prefer to go with a Yamaha Inverter EF6300iSDE for all the typical reasons, which is rated at 45.8 amps /52.5 amps @120V. But of course that’s based on...

I guess I'm confused, the 45.8 amps /52.5 amps @120V are the specs per Yamaha.
EF6300iSDE
But when you look at the generator, it has one typical 30 AMP female plug and two typical 20 AMP plugs.
If you look at the photo on the Gallery page of the linked site, they show a 4 pole 120/240 receptacle.
