WHY, would it do that and not blow its associated breaker?
This just happened at my house.
Just poorly made?? It was an 8000 watt gen set.
Both legs are breaker protected.
I was using 240 vac at the time, an AC unit when it quit.
I suppose either a wire is bad inside the plug panel on the gen, or it burnt out something expensive.
Its 98*F, and the utility power quit for several hours, but at least after the gen quit, I tried utility power and it is back on.
