Load Genset

[kris_J]

I want to run and load the generator with the cover on. I know I can't run the A/C but, what I want to do is load the gen with the microwave and maybe a coffee maker. Does anyone have any other ideas on how to load the gen with the MH covered? Thank you

You have the RV covered?
And you want to run the generator?

Is the space around the generator open?
Will it get airflow?
If the exhaust clear, or is it going to melt your cover?
While you are over heating the generator?

Do you have access to an outside outlet to plug item(s) in ? It is recommended the generator be operated under load, for at least one hour, every month.

You shouldn't run the A/C's with the RV cover over them. Electric heater(s) are a better choice.
