Open Frame Vs Inverter With Heavy Loads
I'm trying to get a handle on the noise level of an open frame generator vs 2 inverter gens in parallel (Champion 3500/4000 and 1700/200). My AC load with the gen on is 16-18 amps or so. I'm trying...

I found a chart from Champion:
Champion Global Power Equipment 2000W Inverter
Percent Load.......Noise Level
0....................53
25...................54
50...................59
75...................65
100..................65
My measurements are a little noisier than that but I'm not testing with their conditions either:

The Champion 2000W inverter noise level (shown in Table 1) is measured under the following conditions:
• Distance of 7 meters (23 feet) from inverter
• Inverter placed on concrete surface
• 30.4 meters (100 feet) from reflective surfaces (walls)
• Ambient noise level 45 dB
