Are there -any- 120vac only generators out there with this KW rating? Or a genset that is reconnectable?
I ran 3 roof airs with a Yamaha 5500 diesel but through a transformer (toroid). I changed my entry service to 60-amperes and rewired accordingly. Even then, should a pair of the A/C units try and restart together, it overloaded the generator. Thank god, the weather was so hot night and day the units never cycled.
I sure would recommend putting -hard start- capacitor circuits on all three units.
